OakleyChairI come the boys are backing up. They're always
Unidentified speakerVoice Ahiding somewhere. Um thank you guys so much for having us here and celebrating these kids. They're super, super hard working. Um athletes. I always get emotional talking about them because they truly, truly I know they're used to it. They work so hard and especially at a school that doesn't always get the recognition other schools do in our county, um, for them to make it to this level and so many of them go on like into college and be successful athletes there. It's super,
super special what we've created, what we're doing. Um a couple of them today, one's at orientation at UCF. We have two attending UCF next year. These two are attending the University of West Georgia next year, the rest are still stuck with me. But um they all leave us and become super, super successful individuals outside of Hudson Chair, which is really what we've wanted to create it. Um and the athletic ability is just kinda like the cherry on top of the cake for what we've been trying to do.
MarianoJack. Thank you. Well congratulations. This is uh something else. This was a few years ago we had a uh local baseball team from Hudson that actually won the state. And then they were gonna go for the nationals and then as I mentioned I think last time here that they went on to won the nationals. Uh you guys have taken it a step beyond. Not only the national champions, not the international champions to to compete with all those people and have the hardest uh routine out there.

make that step and the courage to go do that. And I understand talking to Mike Mellicos after the first day, you guys were like way ahead and you just keep kept the lead strong. So uh thanks for representing so well. We're we're proud of all of you. Um Hudson's got great spirit, always has, always will.
