2024 (Senior): Fulfilled her dream of playing in a Women’s College World Series as she played a crucial role in Oklahoma State accomplishing that feat ... Featured in all 61 games and started in all but one ... Enjoyed the best statistical season of her career as she garnered NFCA All-America honors for the first time in the final season of her career ... Also earned first team All-Big 12 and CSC academic All-America recognition ... Among Cowgirls with at least 100 at-bats, she led the team with a .375 batting average and .712 slugging percentage, 69 hits, 17 home runs and 51 RBIs ... Finished inside the top 10 in the Big 12 in home runs (fourth), RBIs (ninth), slugging percentage (eighth) and total bases (131, fifth) ... Her 17 home runs set a single-season record for a catcher and was three home runs shy of tying the all-time single-season record ... Boasted a .992 fielding percentage playing primarily behind the plate but also featured in right field occasionally ... Played her best softball in the biggest games, evidenced as she hit home runs against No. 2 Texas and No. 2 Oklahoma and recorded at least a hit and combined for three RBIs in each of the Cowgirls’ five NCAA Regional/Super Regional games from May 17-25 ... Blasted home runs in three-straight contests on two separate occasions (March 22-26 and April 5-7) that included a two-HR day against Houston on April 7 ... Became the first Cowgirl since 2019 to record seven RBIs in a game in that Houston contest as she hit two home runs and a two-RBI double as part of a 7-for-9 weekend against the Cougars that earned her NFCA/Big 12 Player of the Week honors ... Began her Cowgirl career with an eight-game hitting streak from Feb. 8-17 that included two home runs, three doubles and eight RBIs ... In the only game of the season that she didn’t start in against LMU on Feb. 9, she hit the go-ahead home run in the seventh inning ... Went a combined 4-for-6 with two doubles, a home run and two RBI in a doubleheader against South Dakota State on Feb. 27 ... Recorded two home runs and a double scattered across five hits in a three-game series against BYU from March 21-23 ... Went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBIs against Iowa State on April 14 ... Hit a single against No. 7 Florida in the Women’s College World Series on May 30.
At Liberty (2020-23): Started 206 games in four years at Liberty, where she tied for fifth in program history in career sacrifice flies (seven), sixth in career homers (35), seventh in career RBI (135), tied for seventh in extra-base hits (74), eighth in total bases (326), ninth in slugging percentage (.517) ... Caught four no-hitters, which tied for the most in program history ... In 2023, Hudson led the ASUN with 15 homers, 17 doubles and 51 RBI, batting .318 with a team-leading .636 slugging percentage ... She had one of the biggest hits of the season, a go-ahead three-run home run to sink Montana Fouts and No. 13 Alabama on April 18 ... That was one of four homers for her in 2023 against Top 25 opponents (also Duke and Central Arkansas) ... On March 5 against Radford, she became the first player in program history with four homers in one day, blasting two home runs in both games of a doubleheader ... At one point of the season, she had a 16-game hitting streak ... Hudson led Liberty to the first at-large berth into the NCAA Championship in program history and an upset win over No. 2 UCLA that eliminated the Bruins from the tournament on their home field.
Personal: The former Caroline Hudson, she married Matthew Wang in 2023 ... A native of Paris, Tennessee, who comes from an athletic family ... Her father, John, had a 10-year NFL career with the Philadelphia Eagles, New York Jets and Baltimore Ravens ... He won a Super Bowl with the Ravens ... Her mother, Ginny, was a gymnast at Auburn and her sister, Celie, played softball at Chattanooga ... Her grandfather, Richard, played six years of professional football with the San Diego Chargers and Buffalo Bills.
