† 2013 NEC Tournament winner As of March 25, 2013; Rankings from AP Poll |
The 2012–2013 St. Francis Terriers men's basketball team represented St. Francis College during the 2012–13 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The team was led by third year head coach Glenn Braica, who is the reigning NEC head coach of the year. The Terrier's home games were played at the Generoso Pope Athletic Complex. They also played 2 games at the new Barclays Center in Downtown Brooklyn against Long Island in a neutral site match up and St. John's in the inaugural Brooklyn Hoops Winter Festival. The team has been a member of the Northeast Conference since 1981. They finished the season at 12–18 overall and 8–10 in the NEC to finish in eighth place, which qualified them for the NEC Basketball Tournament. They lost in the quarterfinals of the Northeast Conference Basketball Tournament to number one seed Robert Morris.
In Glenn Braica's first two seasons the Terriers have made the NEC tournament. Going into this season Braica has a combined 30–30 record and is coming off of winning the 2012 NEC Coach of the Year Trophy. Last year the Terriers earned the fourth seed in the conference and hosted their first home playoff game since 1997. For the 2012–2013 season, Braica's Terriers were selected to finish fifth by the Northeast Conference men's basketball coaches. The Terriers had four of their five starters returning for the season. The only loss in the starting five was swingman and three-point specialist Stefan Perunicic. Perunicic is the program's second-leading three-point shooter of all-time. The Terriers also lost guard Justin Newton to graduation. Yet the Terriers saw the return of former starting guard Dre Calloway, who missed most of last season after having season-ending shoulder surgery in November 2011.
