Connor Beals was named MAAC Face-off Specialist of the Year; Steven Schmitt was named MAAC Long Stick Midfielder of the Year; Mitchell Dunham was named MAAC Defensive Player of the Year; and TJ Gravante was named MAAC Rookie of the Year. Beals, Schmitt, and Dunham, along with Jared McMahon and Jake Krieger earned MAAC First Team Honors. Jackson Phillips earned MAAC Second Team honors. Gravante earned MAAC Rookie Team honors.[2]

Assistant coaches Giblin and Moon resigned after the Mount's MAAC tournament loss to Marist. Giblin took the position of principal at St. Bartholomew's Middle School in Bethesda, Maryland. Moon, who coached Beals to a record setting season at face off, founded SVP Face Off, a training group for collegiate face off specialists. The Mount dismissed coach Gravante, ending his 26 year tenure[3] and hired Chris Ryan to replace Gravante, becoming the 6th head coach in program history. Kellinger remained on staff through the summer of 2023.
