Seton Hall Prep, a Non-Public A powerhouse from West Orange, has elevated assistant coach John Smith to defensive coordinator. Smith spent four seasons developing talent on the Pirates' staff, helping the team to a 24-12 record during that span. The move is seen as a key step in preparing the Pirates for a competitive Non-Public A season. Recruiting efforts are expected to intensify, with Smith's expertise on the defensive side of the ball a major selling point for potential recruits. The Pirates' strong defensive tradition is expected to continue under Smith's guidance, with a focus on developing a stout unit capable of shutting down opponents in the Non-Public A playoffs.
