This was the first season for the LIU Sharks, which is a consolidation of the two athletic programs, the Division I LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds and Division II LIU Post Pioneers.[1]
They finished the season 15–18, 9–9 in NEC play to finish in a tie for fifth place. They defeated Fairleigh Dickinson in the quarterfinals of the NEC tournament before losing in the semifinals to Robert Morris.
