Spoiled 😂this summer Hudson had the opportunity to pitch at U of Georgia, Schwab Field (Omaha) and Kauffman Stadium . Lucky 17 yr old
LHP/1B Hudson Hardesty (Lawrence, 2027), high-follow, uncommitted two-way prospect.
Sat 88-89 MPH. Went to sweeping BB in the low 70s. Showed feel for CH in the low 80s.
Long, lanky with room for added strength. Chance to tick up.

Hudson Hardesty wants to help his teams win. For him, that means putting in as much work to be Lawrence’s best pitcher and hitter.
With his senior year coming up, Hardesty is hoping to show colleges he can contribute both offensively and defensively.

Someone asked me today in Atlanta “does he want to pitch or hit “….. my answer …he loves to play . Keep working good things will come .
‘27 1B Hudson Hardesty (KS) absolutely smashes this one back up the middle for a base hit (99 EV). Low tension swing w/ big strength at impact. #WWBA @PGMidwestBB @PG_Uncommitted

Hudson Hardesty (‘27, MO) lines one the other way for a knock. Quick hands that work the barrel flat through. @PG_Uncommitted @PGMidwestBB #WWBA
When you’re old you remember things . 30 years ago it was what I thought was a once in a lifetime experience watching my son Shane’s journey into college baseball . Now so blessed to watch Hudson work so hard to earn an opportunity to play at the next level

Harrison Hardesty (‘29, KS) lines this pitch back up the middle for a base hit. Controllable swing patterns & feel for the barrel. #UBC @PGMidwestBB
He was wearing Red and Black before he could walk . So proud that he’s a Chesty Lion and my grandson .
Not a fair evaluation, I’m his grandpa,he’s 6’1 185 runs a tic under 7.0 hit .381 and stroke out 62 in 50 innings playing in a tough conference.3.9 gpa takes after his grandma.Been in a locker room since birth.Team first . 2-way player he can play at a high level .

One of the top uncommitted two-way players in the state showed out in both sides of the ball in this.
The LHH collected two hits including a double.
On the mound tossed 5 inn allowing just 2 ER on 4 H 2 BB while punching out 9.

Thank you Chesty Lion family for thinking of some old guy .
Pretty Special night when your grandpa gets to throw you the first pitch. #chestylions @HHardesty123 @DirkWedd
Mac , great pictures , you do such a wonderful job of promoting all HS athletics in the area. We are lucky to have you . I need to improve my video game, out of focus and shaking to often. Ha
So very blessed that our two grandsons get the opportunity to be part of such a storied tradition. Whether they help to add to the 26 State Championships, the experience will make them better young men .
Excited that these boys get to be Chesty Lions for two years. #chestylionssincebirth #brothers❤️🖤 🥹 @HHardesty123
Love watching him play , learning how tough this game is . Growing both physically and mentally right before our eyes .
