The 2021–22 Sacred Heart Pioneers men's basketball team represented Sacred Heart University in the 2021–22 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The Pioneers, led by ninth-year head coach Anthony Latina, played their home games at the William H. Pitt Center in Fairfield, Connecticut as members of the Northeast Conference (NEC).
In a season limited due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Pioneers finished the 2020–21 season 9–9, 9–7 in NEC play to finish in a tie for third place. Due to complications caused by the pandemic, only the top four teams were eligible to participate in the NEC tournament.[1] The Pioneers lost to Bryant in the semifinals.[2]
NEC COVID-19 policy provided that if a team could not play a conference game due to COVID-19 issues within its program, the game would be declared a forfeit and the other team would receive a conference win. However, wins related to COVID-19 do not count pursuant to NCAA policy.[3] |-!colspan=12 style=| Non-conference regular season|-!colspan=12 style=| NEC regular season|-!colspan=9 style=| NEC tournamentSources[4] [5]
