WASHINGTON - GW men's basketball 2026-27 is complete following the addition of incoming first-year Jayvon Rampersant, it was announced by Head Coach Chris Caputo on Friday.
"Jayvon is a versatile young front court player who brings athleticism and a high motor," Caputo said. "In high school, Jayvon showed an ability to dominate the glass. We are excited to have a young player with the ability to play both frontcourt positions, focused on not only competing but long-term development as well."
A 6-8Â forward, Rampersant signed with GW following a standout senior at Berkmar High School in Lilburn, Ga. As a senior, he was an All-State and All-County selection in addition to being the Region 7-AAAAAA Defensive Player of the Year. He averaged 16.0 ppg, 12.0 rpg and 2.0 bpg and was also named a nominee for the 2026 McDonald's All-American Game.
Rampersant played the prior year at Grayson High School in Georgia, garnering All-Region honors after moving from the New York metro area, where he began his high school career at Hudson Catholic in Jersey City, N.J.Â
