The Division III phenom is stepping up to the big leagues.<\/p>\n
Dorian Glogovac, a 6-foot-6 guard from Vancouver, B.C., announced his commitment to Penn on Friday. Glogovac joins the Quakers from Caltech, which competes in the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference at the NCAA Division III level.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cComing from one of the best STEM institutions in the world, I knew I wanted to maintain that level of academic excellence wherever I went,\u201d Glogovac wrote in a statement to The Daily Pennsylvanian. \u201cOn top of that, getting to compete for a program with the best fan base in Ivy League basketball, a long history, an amazing coaching staff, and play alongside guys who know what it takes to win and have made it to the tournament is something I don\u2019t take lightly.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Last season, Caltech finished dead last in its conference, posting four wins and 21 losses during the 2025-26 season.\u00a0Even though the Beavers didn\u2019t impress as a team, Glogovac dominated on the court. His 23.6 average points per game led the conference<\/a> by over four points. It was the highest points per game average from a freshman \u00a0and ranked No. 16 among all players in the division<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m really grateful for my experience this year because being the leading freshman scorer in the nation forced me to learn how to play against a lot of different defensive coverages,\u201d Glogovac wrote to the DP. \u201cI feel like I\u2019ve matured a lot as a player this past year and I\u2019m excited to take it to the next level.\u201d<\/p>\n Get the DP delivered straight to your inbox.<\/p>\n Sign Up<\/a><\/p>\n Glogovac\u2019s most impressive showing came in the penultimate game of the season, against conference foe La Verne. In just 40 minutes, Glogovac netted 41 points, resetting Caltech\u2019s single-game scoring record in its sole conference victory of the season. He also reset the program\u2019s single-season scoring record earlier in the season, and concluded his freshman campaign with 567 points across 24 games.<\/p>\n In comparison, the Quakers\u2019 top scorer, rising senior forward TJ Power, finished the season with 492 points in 30 games.\u00a0<\/p>\n Glogovac joins a Penn squad that defied expectations in the 2025-26 season. Although preseason polls<\/a> projected that the Red and Blue would finish seventh in the conference, the Quakers secured a third-place finish in the Ivy League during the regular season. Back-to-back overtime upsets during Ivy Madness sent Penn men\u2019s basketball to its first March Madness tournament since 2018.\u00a0<\/p>\n
