On March 30, 2022, head coach and Seton Hall alum Shaheen Holloway left to take the head coaching position at his alma mater, where he previously was an assistant from 2010–18.[5][6] On April 12, Jersey City native Bashir Mason, who was the head coach for Wagner, was named Holloway's replacement.[7]
