David Bosco committed to Harvard on Friday. The Belmont Hill product has long been one of the top '08s in New England.
A longtime standout for the Boston Junior Eagles, Bosco's prep career began with a bang, posting 37 points in his freshman year at Belmont Hill in 2023-24. That helped him earn a spot at U.S. National Team Development Program Evaluation Camp that spring.
While he didn't make the NTDP, he was picked in the third round (32nd overall) by the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders in the USHL Phase 1 Draft.

That summer, Bosco ranked fourth at USA Hockey's Select 16 Camp with three goals and nine points in six games, boosting his stock further.
The Winchester, Mass., native took a big step this past winter as a sophomore at Belmont Hill, leading his squad in points with 47 and helping the Sextants to become the No. 1 seed in the Large School Tournament.
In the QMJHL Draft in June, Bosco was taken in the 10th round (168th overall) by the Gatineau Olympiques. He followed that up by notching six points in six games at Select 17 Camp in early July.
At 6 feet and 170 pounds, Bosco is a highly skilled right wing who can also play center. He has a lethal shot and is outstanding at creating offense when the puck is on his stick. He's someone who will likely someday slot in Harvard's top six. In our first 2026 NHL Draft rankings, Bosco ranked No. 7.
He's slated to play in Cedar Rapids for the RoughRiders this coming season.
