A Boston Champion's Next Chapter
The University of San Francisco announced today that guard Jaylen Hunter‑Coleman has signed with the program, bringing a Boston championship pedigree to the Dons roster.
At Charlestown High School, Hunter‑Coleman led the team to its first Boston City League Championship in 14 years, capping the season with a 22‑point performance in the title game.
His father, longtime head coach Hugh Coleman, guided the squad, and the elder Coleman’s legacy added a layer of family tradition to the achievement.
Recruitment Landscape
Originally slated for the class of 2027, he reclassified to the 2026 cohort, narrowing his choices to USF over programs such as Ball State, Fairfield, Robert Morris, Boston University, Towson, Gardner‑Webb, Hofstra and Holy Cross.
Coach Chris Gerlufsen said he is eager to see how Hunter‑Coleman’s blend of skill, work ethic and character will shape the team’s dynamics and future success.
