Asia Clarice Hogan-Rochester (born April 20, 1999) is a Canadian rugby sevens and fifteens player.

Career

She won a gold medal at the 2019 Pan American Games as a member of the Canada women's national rugby sevens team. After the win over the United States she said that "It's unreal, I can't believe this has happened. This was our biggest opponent so we were a bit (nervous). But we definitely used those nerves coming into this final and we came out on top thankfully." Hogan-Rochester plays in primarily the wing or fullback positions. She was chosen for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, France. The team won a silver medal, coming from 0-12 behind to defeat Australia 21-12 in the semi-finals, before losing the final to New Zealand.
