🔼 Experience On The Bench. Friends for years, Amaka Agugua-Hamilton and Ron Hughey had never been colleagues until this spring. In early March, Hughey resigned as head women’s basketball coach at the University of Houston, and Agugua-Hamilton saw an opportunity for her program.

With an opening to fill on her staff at the University of Virginia, where she’s heading into her fourth season as head coach, Agugua-Hamilton reached out to Hughey.
