Acting head coach Will Jones is 3-1 since taking over the team in late December.
 
HORNETS OVERVIEW: The Hornets defeated three-time defending MEAC champion N.C. Central 68-66 on a John Crosby buzzer-beater that had to be determined whether it was good by a monitor review before the Hornets could celebrate Saturday at home.  It was their first Division-I win of the season. Crosby leads the MEAC in scoring at 21.8 points per game. The Hornets have the third-best scoring offense in the conference averaging 71.5 points per game. They shoot 32.3 percent from beyond the arc, also good for third in the MEAC. Second-year head coach Eric Skeeters is 8-39 since taking over the program in July 2018.
