And Billmeier has ties to New Jersey, being a native of Pennington, just about 25 miles away from NJIT.
The former Seton Hall standout will have his work cut out for him as well. The Highlanders have never been to the NCAA Tournament and finished last season with just 7 wins. NJIT’s last winning season was in 2019.
