Jacob Hudson is Gardner-Webb’s steady scoring guard with two-way pop
In the 2025-26 season, Jacob Hudson has been Gardner-Webb’s go-to guard, averaging 10.7 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 1.7 assists while starting 17 of 29 games, with a 46.2% field-goal clip and 25.0% from three. He’s a sturdy 6-2, 185-pound sophomore who brings shot-making, rebounding from the guard spot, and physicality over flashy volume—useful traits for a team needing a reliable, competitive backcourt piece. The one caution flag: his three-point efficiency hasn’t popped yet, so the appeal is more all-around toughness and trust than pure perimeter fireworks.
