The Rhode Island native enters his fourth season as the contact for the Bulldogs' men's basketball program, which has enjoyed an uptick in coverage from print and broadcast media coverage in the Providence market and nationally, while the program's social media following has increased by over 600% since his arrival. McQuiggan has worked with the volleyball and men's lacrosse programs to grow their social media following to the largest in the NEC. He also served as the contact for men's golf from 2017-19 and women's lacrosse in 2018-19 in addition to his current sport responsibilities.

The women's lacrosse program saw a 400% growth in social media following and was featured numerous times on SportsCenter, ESPN.com and Sports Illustrated in addition to gracing the covers of Inside Lacrosse and US Lacrosse Magazine. McQuiggan worked on the campaign for Tewaaraton finalist Kylie Ohlmiller in 2017 and three other Tewaaraton nominees along with an NCAA Woman of the Year finalist.

In addition to his athletic communications responsibilities with his teams, McQuiggan spearheaded the marketing of the women's lacrosse program - which climbed to second in the nation in attendance in 2017 - and served as a feature writer for the communications and development departments.

Prior to his time at Stony Brook, McQuiggan was at the American Athletic Conference office in Providence, where he was the primary contact for five sports and secondary contact for men's basketball in addition to assisting with football.
