Career
Hoogs formed a strong doubles combination at University of California Berkeley with Jim McManus. The pair were doubles runners-up at the 1961 National Collegiate Athletic Association Championships. As a singles player, Hoogs notably reached the fourth round at the 1965 French Championships and only narrowly missed out on a spot in the quarter-finals, losing to Toomas Leius 7-9 in the fifth set.
Hoogs had his leg amputated in 1968, after developing a malignant growth on his foot.
The cancer claimed his life in 1978.
