Following the 2021 season, retiring William Patterson men's head coach Brian Woods was named to the clubs USL team top job.
In 2022, the RCNJ WPSL team topped the Mid-Atlantic Conference with a record of 6-1-1. The team secured the title on the last matchday of the season with a 3-2 home victory against Lehigh Valley Tempest, earning the club the duty of hosting the Eastern Region Playoffs. The team lost to VT Fusion in the regional semi-final in kicks from the penalty mark after 120 minutes of scoreless play.
The club's USL2 side placed 3rd in the Mid-Atlantic Conference with a 6-6-2 record.
