Vogues Alumna Amaka Agugua-Hamilton named Head Women’s Coach at University of Virginia
The Vogues are proud of and excited for our former Vogue Amaka Agugua-Hamilton who was named as the new coach of the University of Virginia Women’s Basketball team. In her four years with the Vogues, the Oakton High School star played for longtime Vogues coach and her high school coach Fred Priester.
Amaka went on to a strong playing career at Hofstra, then joined their coaching staff before moving on to coaching stops at VCU, ODU and Indiana. She then moved on to Michigan State where she become associate head coach.
Amaka took her first head coaching job at Missouri State (formerly Southwest Missouri State) and put together a record of 74-15 with 2 trips to the NCAA (another certain trip cancelled by Covid), including a trip to the Sweet 16! As a result of her efforts, she was named NCAA D1 Rookie Coach of the Year.
Amaka returns home to Virginia to coach the UVA women with great ability and confidence, as well as the support of all the Vogues throughout the years. Good luck Amaka!
