Hudson Polk enters his second season on the Arkansas baseball staff in 2026.
Since Polk, who spent the 2025 season as a student assistant coach before moving into his current role as offensive analyst, joined the coaching staff, Arkansas has made one trip to the College World Series (2025).
A former Razorback catcher, Polk played two seasons under head coach Dave Van Horn after transferring to Arkansas from Oklahoma prior to the 2023 season. In his two years as a Hog, Polk hit three home runs and recorded 12 RBI over 35 games.
The Coppell, Texas, native was a two-time SEC Academic Honor Roll selection while at Arkansas, earning a spot on the First-Year SEC Academic Honor Roll as a junior in 2023 before landing on the Spring SEC Academic Honor Roll as a senior in 2024.
Prior to coming to Arkansas, Polk appeared in 16 games over two seasons (2021-22) at Oklahoma, swatting one home run and driving in eight runs as a Sooner. As a sophomore during the 2022 campaign, he played in 12 games with six starts at catcher and slashed .313/.522/.563 with two doubles, one triple, five RBI and five runs scored on the year.
