The tennis program at Seton Hall is no stranger to change.

For the third time in four years, the Pirates have changed their head coach midway through the season, as coach Kevin McGlynn returned to the Hall. McGlynn led the team to the most successful tenure in its program’s history from 1991-96, and under McGlynn, Seton Hall had accumulated a 70-34 record, the program’s only undefeated season NCAA Tournament berth.

“It was an opportunity,” McGlynn said. “This was a great landing spot for me.”

Although the season did not go as planned with the Pirates exiting the Big East Championship in the quarterfinals and finishing 7-11, their lowest winning percentage since 2014-15, McGlynn is excited for the future of his squad, as they are returning five players for next year.
