Thank you for generously supporting Hudson in this year’s competition. Your support helps empower the V Foundation for Cancer Research and the Why Not You Foundation in their respective missions to save lives and empower today's youth to become tomorrow's leaders.
It’s the mix of challenge, teamwork & excitement every time Hudson steps on the field. The pressure of big moments, the strategy behind every pitch & play, & the commaderie with his teammates. Baseball teaches discipline, patience, & how to never give up. How to bounce back from disappointment. It’s more than a game - it’s where Hudson competes, learns, works hard, believes in himself & his team, and finds joy in simply showing up.
Hudson is inspired by people who never give up & always try their best, no matter how hard things get. Whether his family, a coach, a professional athlete, an author - he recognizes their hard work & learns from their perseverance & dedication. Their examples remind him to always show up, do his best, stay positive through challenges, & keep pushing himself in sports & in life.
It’s not just one moment, but Hudson’s unwavering dedication, humility & love for the game. Pushing through tough practices. Juggling schedules and school commitments. Working hard, staying focused, & being a leader & a friend to his teammates. Watching him grow as an athlete & a person is a constant source of pride for all of us.
