Assistant Coach Kevin Hodge
Kevin Hodge completed his second season as an assistant coach in Bloomington in 2024. A longtime friend, teammate and co-worker of head coach Steve Aird, he was named an assistant coach for Indiana volleyball on July 6, 2023.
Hodge spends time working with the team’s defensive game plan and in-game serving strategy. Over his two seasons in Bloomington, the Hoosiers have racked up 426 aces including 122 from All-American Camryn Haworth. The Fishers, Ind. native went on to break the program’s all-time aces record (213) as a senior in 2024.
Libero Ramsey Gary has worked closely with Hodge in both of their two seasons at IU. She is already a two-time All-Big Ten selection and has racked up 968 digs in just 63 matches. She broke both IU’s freshman and all-time single season digs record (530) and was a unanimous All-Big Ten Freshman team choice.
The Hoosiers totaled 215 aces in 2023, becoming the first Big Ten program since 2001-02 with consecutive seasons of 200+ aces. IU’s defense was vastly improved in 2023, totaling 1,647 digs and 303 blocks. IU matched a program record with 21 regular season wins in 2023 and beat Purdue for the first time since 2012.
In the two seasons that Hodge has been at IU, it has racked up 36 wins overall and 19 conference wins. The Hoosiers have gone 21-7 (.750) at Wilkinson Hall during that span, winning 10+ home matches in back-to-back seasons for the first time since 1999-2000.
Personal
Hodge joins the IU program after working as the Director of Girls Indoor Recruiting at WAVE, California’s premier club volleyball program, since 2015. He took on a variety of roles for the club, most notably being named 2019 National 17’s Club Coach of the Year.
At Penn State, Hodge played four seasons Nittany Lion Men’s Volleyball team from 1998-2002 where he was a teammate of Aird’s. Hodge helped lead Penn State to four consecutive Final Four appearances and was named to the EIVA All-Tournament team in 2001.
Following his playing career, Hodge served three years as a volunteer assistant coach under legendary Penn State women’s volleyball head coach Russ Rose. The Nittany Lions won three-straight Big Ten titles (2003-05) in those three seasons.
He would serve one year as an assistant coach in 2006 at the University of Cincinnati, overlapping with Aird once again in the Queen City. Hodge began his club coaching journey in 2007 with Team Z out of Cincinnati before moving out to Southern California.
Hodge has spent time working with the Junior Volleyball Recruiting Association (JVRA) as the Advisory Board Chair and has helped coach some of the nation’s premier talent at WAVE.
