Three-time team captain spent four seasons in role, 10 years on Wildcat staff
DURHAM, N.H. – UNH Director of Athletics Allison Rich announced Wednesday that women's basketball head coach Kelsey Hogan '14 has resigned from that position after four seasons at the helm and 10 years as a member of the Wildcat coaching staff.
"I want to thank Kelsey for her decade of leading our team and mentoring our women's basketball student-athletes, especially the last four seasons as our head coach. Kelsey is a true Wildcat for Life, and I wish her well in her future endeavors," Rich said.
A national search to replace Hogan will begin immediately.
Hogan, a Nashua, N.H. native, three-time UNH captain, and former All-America East First Team guard, was the seventh head coach in UNH women's basketball history. She was elevated to that position on Aug. 10, 2020. She departs her alma mater with a career record of 28-77. Hogan, who joined the program as an assistant coach under Maureen Magarity shortly after graduating in 2014, was promoted to associate head coach in August 2019.
Hogan, who is ranked No. 2 all-time at UNH in free throw percentage (.807), scored 1,181 points (No. 12 in school history) and handed out 375 assists (No. 4) during an illustrious playing career that spanned from 2008-14. The 5-foot-6 guard overcame medical redshirt seasons in 2008-09 and 2009-10 to become a three-time captain and an All-America East First Team selection her senior year (2013-14). That season she ranked No. 1 in the conference in free throw percentage (.821) and placed among league leaders in 3-point field goal percentage (.317/No. 4), minutes/game (32.6, No. 5), assists/game (3.2/No. 6), 3-pointers made (49, No. 7), and points/game (12.5, No. 9).
Hogan took the America East by storm as a redshirt freshman in 2010-11 when she led the conference in assists/game (4.1) and 3-point field goal percentage (.413). She paced the America East in 3-point field goal percentage (.446) again as a sophomore (2011-12), and punctuated her junior season (2012-13) with one of the biggest shots in school history, a buzzer-beating, 3-pointer that lifted the Wildcats over Stony Brook, 49-46, in the America East quarterfinals.
Hogan earned dual degrees in Psychology and Kinesiology: Sport Studies with a minor in Education at UNH before receiving her Master of Business Administration degree from Southern New Hampshire University in 2018.
Prior to coming to UNH, Hogan enjoyed a decorated high school career at Nashua North High School where she became the first player in school history to score 1,000 points (1,032) and was named All-State four straight seasons.
