The team's Head Coach is Jeff Jagodzinski, who will begin his second season as the Eagles' head coach with an 11-3 overall record, and a 6-2 conference record at B.C. Boston College has been a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference's (ACC) Atlantic Division since joining the league in 2005, after leaving the Big East Conference.
