The Patriots will be led by 2018 All-Atlantic 10 second team selection Otis Livingston II, who is one of just six Div. I players returning who has posted at least 1,400 points, 350 assists and 250 rebounds in a career.

In addition to welcoming back all five 2017-18 starters, the Patriots also will add former University of Virginia forward Jarred Reuter (Marion, Mass.), as well as a recruiting class that features guards Jason Douglas-Stanley (Mount Vernon, N.Y.) and Jamal Hartwell II (Los Angeles, Calif.), as well as forward Jordan Miller (Purcellville, Va.).
