Before his arrival in the Brick City, Rutgers-Newark had never gone to an NCAA Championship Tournament. Now the Scarlet Raiders have been in the Big Dance twice (2009-10 and 2012-13). His career record is by far the best in Rutgers-Newark's NCAA Division III history and the Raiders' success in the NJAC under his guidance, including a stretch of eight consecutive winning seasons in conference play from 2008-2016, is unprecedented. Prior to his arrival in 2001, the Raiders had posted just two winning seasons since 1988. Loughran came to the Scarlet Raiders from Stonehill College in Easton, Mass., where he served as Kevin O'Brien's top assistant in 2000-2001. He also served as an assistant at Division I Hartford in 1999-2000 and Division II American International College from 1995-1999. Loughran began his coaching career with a two-season stint at Division III Norwich (1993-1995). Loughran earned a Bachelor of Arts in American Studies in 1993 and master of education in 1999 at American International College. As the athletic academic coordinator for the department, Loughran has been instrumental in the outstanding overall performance of Rutgers-Newark student-athletes.
