Rutgers Prep head coach Matt Bloom has been involved in organized basketball longer than his star player, class of 2021 standout Trey Patterson, has been alive.
Bloom boasts more than two decades of experience in various roles at Division I college programs. He was a team manager at the University of Pennsylvania during his four years as an undergraduate starting in 2000, before spending time as a basketball operations coordinator at Rutgers.
Most recently he was the director of men’s basketball operations at La Salle for six years, where he was responsible for coordinating player schedules, media obligations and training programs, among other duties at the Atlantic-10 institution.
