Allison Hogue Hired as Assistant Director of Athletics Media Relations

HARTSVILLE, S.C. - Allison Hogue has been hired as Coker's new Assistant Director of Athletics Media Relations, announced today (Thursday, Dec. 31) by Director of Athletics Media Relations Jake Miller.

Hogue brings a wide range of both organizational and Division I athletics communications experience to Coker. Most recently, she was a freelancer for Duke University's Athletic Communications staff, where she wrote and published feature stories for GoDuke.com.

"Allison was hired because of her wealth of experience both at the school and organizational level and her passion for the field," said Miller. "These two qualities plus her extensive skill set will be a fine addition to our office here at Coker."

Before her time at Duke, she was a communications and marketing intern at the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA), where she assisted with press releases, content creation and other tasks in the organization's office.

Prior to the WBCA, Hogue worked the 2019 summer as a Sports Communications intern for the University of Florida. As a member of the Gators communications staff, she assisted with writing, website maintenance and social media content.

Hogue got her start in athletics as a student assistant in the Athletics Communications office at Liberty University, where she worked during her four years of undergrad. She served as the primary contact for Liberty's cheerleading team, while also assisting with written content, game day publications, press conferences and other facets of athletics communications.

The Nashville, Tenn. native holds a Bachelor's of Science in Sport Management from Liberty (2019), and is pursuing her Master's of Science in College Athletic Administration at Coker.
