Previous season

edit

The Aggies finished the 2021–22 season 12–20, 6–10 in Big South play, to finish in fifth place in the North Division.[1] In the Big South tournament, they defeated Radford in the first round,[2] before falling to top-seeded Longwood in the quarterfinals.[3] This would be the team's only season as a member of the Big South Conference, as they moved to the Colonial Athletic Association, effective July 1, 2022.[4] On August 18, the school announced the firing of head coach Willie Jones, after only two years at the helm. Assistant coach Phillip Shumpert will be the interim head coach for the 2022–23 season, as the school will look for a new head coach following the end of the season.[5]
