Mislav Brzoja, a 6-foot-4 guard from Croatia who is a threat from three-point range, has been added to Villanova's basketball roster, coach Jay Wright announced Friday.
Brzoja, who will be eligible to compete as a freshman during the season, spent last season leading Traders Point Christian Academy of Whitespoint, Ind., to a 24-3 record. Earlier this month, he averaged 15.0 points, 1.9 assists, and 2.3 steals in helping lead Croatia to victory in the under-18 European Championships.
Brzoja, who was his team's captain, shot 34.0 percent from three-point range and averaged more than two baskets from deep in the eight games that he played.
