5A Coverboy: Smithson Valley DE Hudson Woods
Smithson Valley defensive end Hudson Woods has gained 70 pounds since his freshman season all while maintaining his quick feet, which has turned the SMU commit into one of Texas' best defenders.
Hudson Woods did not win the 200 meters at the Don Shelton Relays in Buda in late March. He clocked a 24.27 in that race, good enough for fifth place, about a second off the pace of Round Rock Westwood’s Colten Case, who took home the gold.
But picture the starting line for a moment. There’s Colten Case in Lane 1, standing about 5-11 and 170 pounds, according to records. And next to him is Hudson Woods — all 6-foot-3 and 225 pounds of him.
