Virginia Tech’s Duffy tabs Hoover as an assistant
BLACKSBURG, Va. – Virginia Tech women’s basketball head coach Megan Duffy named Jen Hoover as an assistant coach of the program Monday. Hoover, who most recently was an assistant at Kentucky for two seasons, is the all-time winningest coach at her alma mater, Wake Forest, where she led the program for 10 years. “Coach Hoover brings a wealth of knowledge to our program, including deep experience as a head coach and player in the ACC,” Duffy said. “From our first conversation, I knew Jen would be a great fit, she has the energy needed to continue the winning tradition of Hokie basketball and can develop top talent at an elite level. She knows what it takes to lead and connect with female athletes in this evolving era of women’s college basketball. She’s an excellent addition to an already strong staff.”
