[caption id="" align="alignleft" width="108"] Duey Hoff, Broker Dickerson & Nieman Realtors[/caption] Duey Hoff has made an impact on RVC Athletics in every way possible for over 45 years. He played both basketball and baseball at RVC (1968-1970) and would later return to coach the men's basketball team, first as an assistant coach (1973) and later as head coach (1983-1985). For the past 28 years, Hoff has served as president of the RVC Athletics Booster Club. On the basketball court, Hoff's specialty was rebounding. He led the 1969-70 team in rebounds with a 13.1 average and for his career at RVC averaged over 10 rebounds per game in helping his teams to back-to-back 23 win seasons. His impact on the RVC Athletics program as Booster Club President can hardly be measured. His leadership has been invaluable and vital to the success of RVC Athletics for nearly 30 years. It was Hoff who launched the Booster Club's successful annual Taste the Hops fundraiser, which will return for its 17^th year in 2015. He also organizes the Booster Club's annual RVC Golf Classic fundraiser every summer as well as other smaller events throughout the year. Behind his leadership, the Booster Club has been able to help the RVC Athletics program purchase national championship rings (for 13 teams since 1996!) and help fund spring trips for the baseball, softball, and tennis teams over the years. Hoff works as a realtor for Dickerson Nieman Realtors where he has been honored as a Silver, Gold & Diamond award winner (2000-2003). He has also served for 10 years as a Special Olympics committee member and for four years as BNI (Business Network International) President and committee member.
