Edward J.Hogan (December 10, 1897 – March 24, 1976) was a track and field standout at the University of Notre Dame in the early 1920s, under legendary coach Knute Rockne.

He placed in numerous track and field events and reportedly trained for the 1924 Olympics.Hogan's photograph is featured on Notre Dame's sports "Wall of Honor".

Earlier in his career, as a student athlete at Youngstown, Ohio's Rayen School, Hogan established a longstanding state record in the javelin throw.

Four decades after his high school graduation, his image was included in Ohio artist John Benninger's mural of Rayen School history, which was recently removed from the former high school building for cleaning and restoration.
