TOM HOGAN
U.S. Women's National Team Assistant Coach (2005-2008)
Thomas Hogan completed his fourth campaign as part of the USA Women's Volleyball National Team coaching staff by helping the U.S. to a silver medal at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
The U.S. reached the Olympic Games gold-medal match for the first time since 1984, despite many experts believing the team was a long shot among a crowded field of medal contenders. The U.S. settled for the silver medal again in 2008, but handed winner Brazil its only set loss of the entire Games. During the 2008 Olympics Games, Team USA defeated second-ranked Italy, third-ranked Cuba, fifth-ranked Japan and host seventh-ranked China.
As an assistant, Hogan has proved valuable to the program. In 2005, he helped Team USA to a gold medal at the 2005 NORCECA Championships and a silver medal at the World Grand Champions Cup. After a disappointing 2006 season, Team USA won 26 of 37 matches in 2007 and earned 2008 Olympic Games qualification at the FIVB World Cup. In September 2007, Hogan was named the USOC Coach of the Month. He served as the head coach for Team USA at the 2008 Pan American Cup in Mexico, which resulted in the U.S. receiving a berth into the 2009 FIVB World Grand Prix and fifth-place finish with a young roster.
Prior to his current role with the women's national team, Hogan served as an assistant coach with the USA Junior National Team in 2004, and was a member of the 2005 JNT team that traveled to Ankara, Turkey, for the 2005 World Championships. The squad won the gold medal at the NORCECA Championships. He was also involved with the USA Youth National A2 Team. Hogan started his USA Volleyball coaching career as an apprentice coach in 2003 working with the USA National Team, the USA National Training Team and the USA Youth National Training Team. |
