About Braylon

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Explosive all-around with elite two-way impact on offence and defense. I like to get to the hoop and score. I’m a passer who can read the floor well. My superior athleticism and high basketball IQ makes me a threat on the floor. 2024-2025 Coulee Conference First Team All Conference Youngest player in school history to reach 1,000 points (Sophomore year)

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I’m a selfless, team player with a winning mindset. I take pride in doing whatever it takes to help my team succeed — whether that means scoring, defending, facilitating, or bringing energy. I lead by example through consistent hard work and commitment, always striving to elevate those around me. Winning is the ultimate goal, and I bring a relentless drive to compete at the highest level

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Outside of sports, I've found that same powerful sense in the community I live in through ways of giving back by volunteering. I've helped with cleanup efforts after storms. Cleanup efforts after our local fair. I've volunteered at Project Christmas to supports families who could be going through tough times. I was confirmed last year at St. Josephs Catholic Church. Nation Honor Honor Society.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

Leadership skills through my dedication to both basketball and the community. I take pride in being a positive influence, encouraging others, and holding myself accountable to high standards. Being involved in the community I understanding the value of giving back and making an impact beyond the game. These experiences have shaped me into an individual who values hard work, humility.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

Coaching change, steeping into the number one role on my high school team as a freshman and sophomore. Box and 1's and difficult defensive sets focused to stop me

What type of college are you looking for?

My goal is to play Division 1 basketball and compete with the best of the best. Looking for a program that believes in me and one that’s willing to give me a real shot. In return, I’m bringing everything I’ve got: my heart, my hustle, commitment to winning. I want to be part of a culture that pushes me to be my best every day, and I’m ready to earn everything through hard work, sacrifice and drive

Previous Ranking: 47
Current Ranking: 38

A player wired to find the basket, Backaus attacks the hoop with his size, strength, aethleticism and skill. And that usually leads to positive results for Black River Falls. Though he is the focal point of opposing defenses, Backaus still is having a huge season for the Tigers. He is averaging 33.8 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists while shooting better than 50 percent from the floor. Backaus has helped Black River Falls to a 7-3 record and has emerged as a solid backcourt prospect in the state’s talented 2027 class.
