Jessica Hohl, a Northwest Ohio native, came to Bowling Green in February of 2012 to serve on Danijela Tomic's first coaching staff with the Falcons. Hohl went to Anthony Wayne High School and hails from Waterville.

In two years, Hohl has been part of a staff that has already left a legacy at BGSU. In 2012, the program won just its second MAC Tournament Championship and won an NCAA Tournament match for the first time. In 2013, Bowling Green defeated No. 13 BYU – the first win over a ranked opponent in program history.

The program was just 27-36 in the two years prior to the arrival of the new staff but the Falcons have flipped that script by going 36-27 over the last two years, including 23-9 in MAC play. The team has become a determined and tough-minded group, winning 10 consecutive five-set matches at one point, including three in a row during the 2012 postseason run.

Prior to returning to the region, Hohl spent a year as a graduate assistant coach at Arkansas State. The program went 21-10 and won the Sun Belt Conference West Division championship, going undefeated at home. Hohl earned her bachelor's degree in retailing from Michigan State in December of 2007 after leading the Spartans to a pair of NCAA Tournament appearances, reaching the Sweet 16 in 2007. She was named Academic All-Big Ten and was an AAU All-American while playing club volleyball with Glass City Volleyball Club.

Hohl also played club volleyball with Premier Volleyball Club and Toledo Volleyball Club. Upon graduation from Michigan State, she played professionally for Ok Calcit in Kamnik, Slovenia, where her team was among the final 16 teams vying for the CEV Cup. She also played for CV Miranda in Spain in 2010 and her team placed second in the regular season.
