After coordinating after-school programs in Richmond for 5 years, Mike transitioned to a classroom teacher in 2014. Currently, he is an English and Humanities teacher in OUSD. He uses basketball to teach life lessons and emphasizes the importance of being a STUDENT-athlete.

From Coach Hudson:

First off, it is an honor for me to be Head Varsity Basketball Coach at Berkeley High! I am overly excited about the opportunity to coach in Berkeley, which has always been known as a city of resilience and achievement. I plan to bring that same mentality to the Berkeley Basketball program. I have tremendous support from the people up top and look forward to establishing a relationship with the school community at large. I am already working everyday to ensure that I put my best foot forward as coach of this program. To the players, we have work to do, as student-athletes, as global citizens. I look forward to our journey together!
