Head Coach
Justin Hanley has been the varsity baseball head coach at Penn Charter since 2018. Before that, he served as varsity pitching coach. During Justin's tenure at PC, the Quakers finished atop the league three times (2014, 2017, 2021), advanced to the state semifinals 6 times, and twice appeared in PerfectGame’s Top 50 national rankings (#13 in 2017, #48 in 2018). While at PC, Justin has coached four MLB draft picks and over 45 players who have gone on to play college baseball. Since 2014, Justin has coached the Inter-Ac / Independent All-Stars in the Carpenter Cup Classic, an annual tournament showcasing the best high school baseball players in the tri-state area. Justin is very active in summer travel baseball, cofounding the M24 Canes (2014-2021), Philadelphia Athletics 17U Showcase team (2021-2023), and served as director of baseball operations at Elite Sports Factory in Manayunk.

Justin played college baseball at West Chester University, where he was a four-year starter and co-captain. He was a starting left-handed pitcher on a staff that finished #1 in the nation in ERA in 2004, and #4 in 2005.
