B. ATHLETICS:

Each student has the opportunity to participate on competing athletic teams. Hudson is a member of the

O.H.S.A.A. and belongs to the Northeast Ohio Conference. We have 15 sports for boys and girls. Check
the list for seasonal offerings. Interested students may obtain information from the Athletic Director or

any coach. Students must be in attendance at school at least one-half of the day (11:00 AM) in order to
participate in an athletic practice or contest.

Eligibility for each grading period is determined by grades received during the preceding grading period.
Semester and yearly grades have no effect on eligibility. To be eligible, students must be passing (D-
or higher) five (5) one credit classes (Physical Education classes do not count toward eligibility.)
AND have a GPA of 1.2. Students who have a GPA of 1.2 through 2.0, or who have an “F” in any
class, are required to attend two study tables per week to maintain eligibility.

Student athletes must be passing five (5) credits to participate. Students should consider this
requirement before dropping ANY class as it may impact eligibility negatively.

Middle School athletes must pass 75% of all course work per grading period. This requirement is carried
over to their freshman year in high school.
