Hoke Named as Girls Head Coach

Zeeland East is pleased to announce that Connor Hoke has been named the girls varsity basketball coach.  Coach Hoke comes to Zeeland from Grandville High School where he has served as as the varsity coach of the girls basketball program the last two seasons.  He has also worked as their assistant athletic director during that period.  Prior to his time at Grandville, Coach Hoke was the varsity girls coach at Belding High School.  

Hoke is eager to get working in the program, "I look forward to getting to know the girls and building a foundation of success on and off the court.  We are going to play with effort, energy and toughness," said Hoke.  

"It was clear to us that Connor's passion for the game of basketball and plan to invest in all levels of the program matched what we were looking for," said Zeeland East Athletic Director Josh Glerum.  "We are excited to have him lead and develop our student-athletes for years to come!"  

Hoke takes the reins of a program that lost in the District Finals last season, but returns a number of important contributors.  "I am excited for the future of Chix basketball.  Zeeland East has a strong foundation of athletics and building great student athletes.  Our girls basketball program will look to do the same!"
