Raised in Egg Harbor City, New Jersey, Reilly attended Holy Spirit High School, where he played baseball before graduating in 2005.[1] Following graduation, Reilly enrolled at Rutgers University, where he would be a member of the baseball team.

He would go 0 for 2 as a junior as well, in 4 appearances at catcher. As a senior, he made 7 starts in 16 games, where he had a .211 batting average, a .375 on-base percentage (OBP) and a .263 slugging percentage.[2]

In 2011, Reilly was named an assistant coach for the Rider Broncs baseball team, working with hitters, catchers and coaching third base.[3] In the fall of 2011, Reilly returned to Rutgers to become a volunteer assistant working with catchers. On August 17, 2017, Reilly was named the hitting and recruiting coordinator for the Lafayette Leopards.[4]

When head coach Joe Kinney announced the fall of 2019, that the 2020 season would be his last before retiring, the college announced that Reilly would named head coach on July 1, 2020.[5] After just two seasons, Lafayette announced that they would be going in a different direction, resulting in Reilly being fired.[6] Reilly was soon named the Pitching coach at Navy.[7]
