On December 30, 2022, head coach Jay McAuley resigned after four years at the helm, after being on a leave of absence since December 5, with assistant coach Dwight Perry serving as the interim head coach for the remainder of the season.[4] On March 21, 2023, the school removed the interim tag and made Perry the permanent head coach.[5]
