Hudson John

My name is Hudson John , and I am a Senior at Highland High School in Pocatello, Idaho. I am a two sport athlete. I recently completed my high school Junior Spring Baseball Season at 1B and Designated Hitter and am currently playing for Post 4 American Legion Single A Razorbacks.  I am presently hitting .483 with an on base percentage of .550, with 32 hits including 2 HRs and 26 RBIs.  This 2023 season I was named the All Conference 5A First Team Designated Hitter. As a kid from a small town in Idaho, I am not being heavily recruited, despite my stats and athletic 225 lbs. and overall athleticism, a fact that I carry as a badge of honor. 

 In addition to being athletic, I am also a dedicated student, and carry a heavy Honors Academic Schedule with a 3.4 cumulative grade point average. My brain power translates well to the baseball field. This last season my high school baseball team achieved the All State Academic Champion Award. I stay busy being a two sport athlete and continue to play football for my high school as the starting Middle Linebacker where we proudly compete in the State Tournament every year. I am equally proud of both abilities. I am well pleased with our current baseball program and the leadership role I have on the team.

I look forward to much hard work in this upcoming Senior Year of High School, and building on my successes. I am an avid weight trainer, working with the Idaho State High School Association Strength Coach of the Year, Cade Ackley with whom I train and will be working to get bigger, faster and stronger. I plan to continue our 50 game Legion Baseball Schedule this summer and attend as many camps as possible when opportunity arises.  I feel strongly I'd be a great addition to your program and I look forward to my continued growth beyond high school.
