Cori Hughes
Head Women's Basketball Coach

I have worked at Dave Cowens' Basketball School since I was a freshman at Boston University. And though in a coaching role, I learned so much as a developing player! The coaches are passionate, knowledgeable, and - most of all - inspirational. They inspired me to not only continue to work to become a better player, but also to purse a career as a college coach.

And still after more than a decade at Cowens, I come back year after year to teach, learn, and hopefully inspire future generations of players and coaches.
