Griffin, the son of former St. Joseph's University head coach John Griffin Sr., replaces former Roman coach Chris McNesby, who resigned in May after two straight state-championship seasons to spend more time with his family.
"I am looking forward to continuing to build upon what all of the past coaches have achieved for this historic program and institution," Griffin said in a statement.
