Moskowitz was named the 9th Head Coach of the Alfred University women's basketball program in April of 2018. In the summer of 2022, he was added as the Team Travel Coordinator.

In the 2022-23 season, the Saxons finished with a 15-10 overall record that included a program-high 10 Empire 8 victories. AU led the conference with 8.3 made 3-point field goals per game. 

In the 2020-21 season, the Saxons led the Empire 8 in three-pointers made per game (7.9) and overall turnover margin (4.11). 
 
While leading the Saxon women's basketball program, Coach Moskowitz has changed the culture to one that excels both on the court and in the classroom as his teams have achieved a 3.0 GPA or higher during each of the semesters while at the helm including three, consecutive semesters above a 3.5 GPA. His Saxons have had six inducted into the Chi Alpha Sigma athletic academic fraternity and have had semester listings 23 times on the Empire 8 President's List by 13 different student-athletes, carrying a GPA of 3.75 or higher in a semester.

Coach Moskowitz and the Saxons have also been highly involved within the local communities, logging in hundreds of hours of community service all throughout the region in areas such as Alfred, Hornell and Belmont. The Saxons have participated in events such as community clean-ups, Kid's Night Out via the Hornell YMCA, geriatric outreach, elementary school reading programs, fundraising initiatives and cancer awareness events including the Play4Kay Breast Cancer Awareness Game in memory of Kay Yow, former women's collegiate basketball coach who passed away from breast cancer in 2009, raising over $1,900, nearly doubling their goal of $1,000 in February of 2020.

He comes to Alfred University from SUNY New Paltz where he served as an assistant coach for three years. In that position he aided in recruiting, practice planning, scouting, skill workouts, and film study coordination among other responsibilities. During his tenure, the Hawks went 58-26 (.667), making the SUNYAC Tournament three times and winning it twice. They advanced to the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 in 2017 prior to bowing out to UMass-Dartmouth, 83-80.
 
Prior to New Paltz, he spent one season as the student assistant for the Oneonta State men’s basketball team, after a few years shadowing Head Coach Vince Medici.
 
Before moving up to the collegiate ranks, Moskowitz was the JV Girls Basketball Head Coach and Varsity Assistant Coach at Unadilla Valley Central School where he coached former Alfred University basketball player, Amanda Off ’17. While at AU, Off scored 1,350 points, which ranks second all-time in program history.
