JUSTIN BLOOD

Justin Blood has become well respected for the consistent America East contender he’s built at the University of Hartford, helping the Hawks set single-season program records for wins twice during his head coaching tenure and advance to the NCAA tournament via a league championship for the first time ever in 2018.

Blood played for King at Franklin Pierce and spent six years as Penders’ right-hand man in Storrs. They’re often at the top of his mind.
