PC’s Hughes gets NWAC’s Coach of Year honor

In only his third year as the men’s head coach at Peninsula College, Jake Hughes has reached the pinnacle of the Northwest Athletic Conference in more ways than one. A week after leading his Pirates to the NWAC championship, Hughes was also named the NWAC coach of the year in a vote of coaches from around the league.

Hughes, who was a player on the 2010 NWAC-champion Pirates’ squad, led Peninsula to an 18-1-2 record this season and a North Division title in addition to the NWAC title. He has a 41-10-8 record overall.

“Though it’s an individual award, I think it’s an award that goes to the whole team and program,” Hughes said. “It’s really cool. It’s really a recognition of a successful program and team.”
