SEATTLE – Seattle University men’s basketball has announced the addition of guard Tyler Boston to its roster for the 2026-27 season. Boston joins the Redhawks after two standout seasons at Holy Cross.
“We’re excited to welcome Tyler to Seattle U,” said head coach Chris Victor. “Tyler is a true lead guard who can score, facilitate and impact the game in a variety of ways. His near triple double in the Patriot League Tournament this past season is a testament to the all-around versatility he will bring to our program."
Boston arrives in Seattle following a strong sophomore campaign in 2025-26, where he started all 32 games for Holy Cross. He averaged 14.2 points, 3.7 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game while shooting 43.2 percent from the field, 39.6 percent from three-point range and 80.1 percent from the free-throw line. He posted a season-high 25 points in a game at Providence recorded a near triple-double with 17 points, nine rebounds and 14 assists versus Lafayette in a first-round win in the Patriot League Tournament.
During his freshman season for the Crusaders in 2024-25, Boston quickly made an impact, earning Most Valuable Player honors at the College Hill Classic. He averaged 9.1 points, 3.8 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game while shooting 45.3 percent from the field. A consistent playmaker, he recorded multiple games with five or more assists and helped lead Holy Cross to key non-conference wins.
In addition to his on-court success, Boston earned Patriot League Academic Honor Roll recognition during his career, highlighting his commitment in the classroom.
Prior to his collegiate career, Boston starred at the Bullis School in Potomac, Md., where he was a three-time first team All-Interstate Athletic Conference selection. He earned fourth team All-Metropolitan honors from the Washington Post as a senior and helped lead Bullis to back-to-back conference championships. He also competed on the AAU circuit with Team Thrill.
