CONGRATULATING COACH DAN HOGAN AND COACH LYNN PARMER ON COACHING HONORS
______
HON. LLOYD SMUCKER
of pennsylvania
in the house of representatives
Monday, February 2, 2026
Mr. SMUCKER. Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to congratulate Cocalico High
School's girls' soccer coach, Mr. Dan Hogan, on receiving the 2025 W.
Gene Davis Memorial Award as Class 3A girls Coach of the Year by the
Pennsylvania Soccer Coaches Association (PSCA). I am equally pleased to
recognize his colleague, Mrs. Lynn Parmer, for being named the
Assistant Coach of the Year by the PSCA.
The Cocalico Eagles soared under Hogan and Parmer's leadership.
During their stellar 20-2-3 season, the girls' soccer team won the
Lancaster-Lebanon League section title and advanced to the District
Three 3A championship. Beaten in the finals in the previous two years,
the Eagles defeated their opponents 3-1 for their first District Three
Class 3A title. The Eagles then made it to the PIAA tournament
quarterfinals before falling in overtime to the eventual tournament
champions.
Having served as head coach for the last 26 years, Coach Hogan
developed a history of success that culminated in their historic 2025
run. The PSCA's W. Gene Davis Memorial Award cements his legacy and
marks him as one of the best soccer coaches in the state.
Equally deserving of commendation is Cocalico's Assistant Coach Lynn
Parmer. Her significant role in Cocalico's success merited statewide
recognition as PSCA's Assistant Coach of the Year for 2025. I
congratulate the Cocalico girls' soccer team on their accomplishments
in 2025 and coaches Hogan and Parmer, for their well-deserved
recognition. I wish them continued success both on and off the field.
