Chester’s New Head Coach Dennis Shaw had this to say about Jalen- “Jalen’s progress has been outstanding. to gain 1st-team all-state honors as a freshman just shows you how talented this kid is. As a freshman, he has already gained the interest of some big-time Division 1 universities. Crazy as it sounds, this season we are expecting him to make a major leap from where he was last year”
