Easton Native Commits to Penn State For Basketball

Easton native and Archbishop Williams sophomore Jaylen Williams has verbally committed to play basketball at Penn State when she graduates, according to the Boston Herald's Danny Ventura.

Williams, a 6-3 forward, is the sister of Camren Williams, a highly touted football prospect who is attending Ohio State University this fall after a stellar career at Catholic Memorial High School.

Camren Williams had along with fellow classmate and Easton native Armani Reeves. He and Reeves switched to Ohio State amidst the sexual abuse scandal involving the Penn State football program.

Jaylen Williams will head to Happy Valley in 2015 to join a women's basketball program that went 26-7 during the 2011-2012 campaign.

Should all go according to plan, she will be the fourth member of her family to play a Division I college sport. In addition to Camren, her father Brent Williams played football at Toledo prior to an 11-year NFL career and her oldest brother, Brennan is a senior football player at the University of North Carolina.
