In 2007, Hoover was named to the Wake Forest Sports Hall of Fame.

In 2012, after leading High Point to a 20–13 record, Hoover was named the Maggie Dixon Division I Rookie Coach of the Year Award, awarded to a coach who achieves great success in their first year as a Division I head coach.

On March 4, 2021, Hoover became the winningest coach in Wake Forest history after beating North Carolina in the 2021 ACC women's basketball tournament. The win gave Hoover 126 total wins as a coach at her alma mater.
