Syracuse, N.Y. — The Syracuse University Orange bears the name of their hometown on the front of their jerseys.
That statement is truer for some members of the SU basketball team than it is for others.
Syracuse center Dajuan Coleman is a native of the Syracuse area who attended Jamesville-DeWitt High School.
As Syracuse gets ready to play in the Final Four for the sixth time in school history, Coleman will become the fifth local product to appear in the starting lineup for his hometown school in the Final Four.
It's a trend that's easy to miss, but hard to ignore.
