The 2019-2020 season marks Darius Prince's fourth season as an assistant coach with Penn State Greater Allegheny.  Prince has worked closely with head coach Tyler Care over those four seasons and has been one of the motivating factors to the team's recent success working with the guards and serving as a defensive specialist.
