Head Coach Jack Leggett on Hogan: "In my opinion, Doug is the epitome of what Clemson baseball is all about. This is his fifth year in the program. Three of those years he waited patiently playing behind other players. Last year, he received his opportunity to start. He developed into one of the best catchers in the conference last season. His offensive skills keep getting stronger and stronger. He is our leader and one of our three team captains in 2008. I look for him to fulfill a tremendous leadership role for this team."
