Northern Colorado men’s basketball announced on Apr. 16 the signing of Campbell Blogg, a 6-foot-4 guard from Melbourne, Australia, who will join the Bears for the 2026-27 season after notable performances with the Sandringham Sabres in NBL1.
The addition of Blogg is seen as important for Northern Colorado as the team prepares to replace key graduating players and aims to strengthen its roster for upcoming competition.
Blogg has been recognized as a leader within the Sandringham Sabres program, where he was named captain and consistently contributed through his scoring and perimeter shooting. In the 2023 season, he averaged 16.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game. He delivered a standout performance in the NBL1 South Grand Final by scoring 28 points with four rebounds and making six three-pointers out of fourteen attempts, helping his team finish as runners-up.
His momentum continued into the following year when he helped lead Sandringham to a conference championship and another deep postseason run that saw them reach the preliminary final. His development also earned him an opportunity as a Development Player with Melbourne United in Australia’s National Basketball League.
“We are absolutely thrilled to add Campbell Blogg to our roster for 2026-27! At the start of spring recruiting, we had several boxes we were looking to check with the graduation of key players such as Quinn Denker, Zach Bloch, Ibu Yamazaki, and Brock Wisne. Those boxes included shooting, toughness, leadership, and positional versatility, and with the addition of Campbell, we believe he checks all those boxes,” said Head Coach Steve Smiley. “An extremely skilled guard with good size that can play a multitude of positions and is extremely effective both on and off the ball, Campbell will be an immediate contributor and will fill a lot of holes for us. Campbell has proven himself on many stages, and his age and level of experience will allow him to seamlessly fit into our style of play as we compete for a Big Sky title. Finally, Campbell is a great person that is about all the right stuff. Greeley, UNC, and all Northern Colorado will enjoy cheering for Campbell and the Bears.”
