Congratulations to long time Vogues Coach and Director Fred Priester for an outstanding week of accomplishments.
His Oakton High School team repeated as Concorde District champions, and along the tournament path Coach Priester registered his 800th career victory, becoming only the third coach in Virginia history to reach that milestone.
Also this week, it was announced that Coach Priester has been selected for induction into the Virginia High School Hall of Fame on April 28th, 2024.
Vogues Basketball is very proud of his accomplishments and his long association with Virginia Vogues. His many contributions to this program over the past 30 years include: over 1500 Vogues wins, 300+ Vogues alumni who have played in college and beyond, and his lasting relationships with all Vogues coaches and players, past and present.
Congratulations to the 6th Grade Team for winning the Charm City Tournament!
7th Grade Regional Team won their pool before losing to Boo Williams in bracket play.
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!
Good luck to them in their seasons!

For indoor practices, we will follow the Virginia protocols regarding numbers in the gym, masking, and sanitizing. Please reference THIS link.
For outdoor practices, masking must be followed during the initial group meeting and on the sidelines when not actively participating in the practice. Transmission of the virus has been found to be prominent in those type settings and is reduced during the active court play. Hand sanitizing will remain for both indoor and outdoor practices at group breaks.
