Men's Basketball

Men’s Basketball

The Montclair State men’s basketball team advanced to the NJAC Semifinals in 2021 and has finished in the top-half of the NJAC Standings in each of the last two seasons. The team has made the NCAA Tournament nine times and advanced to the Sectional Semifinals (Sweet 16) during the 2002-2003 season. Three members of the program have been named All-Americans, and Gian Paul Gonzalez was named the NJAC Player of the Year in 2006. Your donation supports travel, equipment, recruiting, and other necessary resources to help grow our program.


Head Coach Justin Potts:

We are thankful for your support towards the men’s basketball program as it provides our student-athletes the best experience during their time at Montclair State University. All donations go directly to enhancing our student-athletes in several areas including gear, meals, locker room enhancements, travel, and many other things. On behalf of the entire basketball program, we want to thank you for giving back to the program and being an integral part of our success.

Your support for the men’s basketball program provides our student-athletes an enhanced experience during their time at Montclair State University. This will allow us to compete in tournaments giving our student-athletes attention on a national scale.
