Now a junior marketing major at the Nistler College of Business, he suits up as a cornerback for UND football while also managing life as an entrepreneur and community leader.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hudson operates his own company, <\/span>H2<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, in Griggs County and works alongside a former teammate at <\/span>Cutting Edge Resources<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Outside of academics, athletics, and business, he enjoys wake surfing, golfing, and spending time with family and friends.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4>Balancing It All<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For Hudson, the key to balance is time management. Balancing football, classes, service, and business requires structure, and he\u2019s learned to treat every hour like it matters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cOne of my greatest strengths is the ability to manage my time. Each day is limited to a certain amount of hours and I do my best to make the most of every minute throughout the day.,\u201d he explains.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Whether it\u2019s preparing for a game, finishing coursework, or planning a business project, Hudson approaches every task like a play in a playbook, tackling it strategically, deliberately, and with an eye on the end goal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1562 size-medium alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/cobpa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/hudson-playing-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/cobpa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/hudson-playing-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/cobpa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/hudson-playing-768x1023.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/cobpa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/hudson-playing-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/cobpa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/hudson-playing-1153x1536.jpg 1153w, https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/cobpa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/hudson-playing-1537x2048.jpg 1537w, https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/cobpa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/hudson-playing-1320x1759.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/cobpa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/09\/hudson-playing.jpg 1816w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Commitment to Community<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Volunteering has been one of the most rewarding parts of Hudson\u2019s UND journey. In just two years, he has completed nearly 300 hours of service, earning him the \u201cMale Individual Community Service Award\u201d for the 2024\u201325 season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe most rewarding part of being active in the Grand Forks community is the ability to give back to the community that raised me.

What\u2019s the worst that happens? You fail? You don\u2019t like it? Oh well, you learn from it. You can\u2019t grow if you\u2019re afraid to fail,\u201d he says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">He encourages fellow students to seek out opportunities that push them, whether that\u2019s in leadership, service, or personal hobbies, and to treat every experience as a chance to grow and improve.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: 'Trade Gothic', 'Oswald Medium', Oswald, Arial, sans-serif;font-size: 1.25rem;letter-spacing: 1.25px\">Q&amp;A with Hudson:<\/span><\/p>\n<h6>How would your teammates describe you in one word?<\/h6>\n<p>&#8220;Ambitious, they see that I am a very hard worker and determined to do better and succeed every single day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h6>What&#8217;s your favorite restaurant in Grand Forks and what&#8217;s your go-to order?<\/h6>\n<p>&#8220;My favorite restaurant has to be Harry&#8217;s Steakhouse.
