High School:

  • Held offers from programs including UMass, Marquette, Texas A&M, VCU, and Brown.
Personal:
  • Bryce comes from a supportive family; his mother, Shauna Ruglass, and father, Tyrell Dortch, have instilled a strong work ethic in him.
  • He has a sister, Phoenix Dottin-Dortch.
  • Bryce is proud to be a part of the historic freshman class and loves the chemistry the team has created thus far.
  • Off the court, he enjoys hanging with friends and talking to his family.
  • Bryce decided to “double up” his high school No. 4 and now wears No. 8 at Rutgers.
Coach Pikiell’s Remarks:
  • “Bryce Dortch is a unique player from a terrific basketball program. He was well-coached in a terrific AAU program. He’s versatile and reminds me of Caleb McConnell in some ways defensively. He can guard multiple positions. He’s a terrific ball-handler for his height. He’s competitive, comes from a great family, and is a great student. He has all the things you look for in a young student-athlete..”
Player’s Remarks:
  • “I bring a lot of energy. Two-way player, facilitator, defense, and I can rebound. I’d say that’s the best part of my game, the versatility. I think I can be a three or a four or just be anywhere on the court.”
