Coaching career

Magarity landed his first coaching job at his alma mater as an assistant coach in 1974, and was elevated to head coach at St. Francis in 1978, where he was 60-76 in five seasons.[2] After a three-year stop at Iona as an assistant under Pat Kennedy, Margarity accepted the head coaching position at Marist, where he stayed for 17 seasons, amassing a 253-259 record while guiding the Red Foxes to the 1986 NCAA Tournament with Rik Smits, as well as two ECAC Metro conference regular season titles, a tournament title, and one MAAC regular season title.[2][3]

Magarity stepped down from Marist after the 2004 season, and became an administrator for two seasons at both the MAAC and Mid-American Conference before joining Maggie Dixon's staff at Army as a women's basketball assistant coach.[4][1] After Dixon's death in 2006, Magarity was elevated to the position of head coach of the Black Knights.[5]
