Good Morning Troy Fam. You know that feeling of watching someone chasing a dream?

That’s what we’re doing in real time with one of our own.

What’s in today’s edition of One Troy Today? Check it out below!

⚾️ Desert Bound
⏱️ Countdown To Kickoff
⛳️ Card Approved
⚔️ And much, much more!

75 days til kickoff, Trojan Fans!

Wearing #75 this upcoming season for the Trojans is senior offensive lineman Zerian Hudson.

A native of Brookhaven, Miss., Hudson arrived after two seasons at Mississippi Gulf Coast CC and played in eight games last fall, including six starts at left guard. Hudson played a total of 335 snaps, allowing just one sack in nearly 200 passing situations.

This fall, Hudson is expected to be a critical piece of the Trojan offensive line room.

Countdown to Kickoff is brought to you by Conecuh Sausage. Conecuh Sausage is made in Alabama, it’s great on the grill and a fan favorite for tailgating. Conecuh Sausage, the Official Sausage of Troy Athletics.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Desert Bound. The dream is becoming closer and closer for Troy junior Brooks Bryan.

This week, the Trojan backstop will head to the desert as he was selected to participate in the fifth-annual MLB Draft Combine at Chase Field, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks, from June 17-21.

Bryan, a catcher from Opelika, Ala., is a two-time All-Sun Belt selection and smashed Troy's RBI record with 85 as a sophomore last season. Bryan became the first Trojan to compete with the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team last summer, along with being named a 2024 Golden Spikes Award Semifinalist and to the 2025 Buster Posey Catcher of the Year Award midseason watch list. 

322 draft-eligible prospects have accepted invitations to the event, including 174 of MLB Pipeline's Top 200 Draft Prospects. MLB Network will have exclusive coverage of the event on Tuesday, June 17, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT, featuring a complete broadcast of the event and breakdowns from MLB Network analysts. 

⚾️ More On Brooks’ Week Ahead

🔼 Card Approved. After a historic spring season for Brantley Scott and the Troy men’s golf program, Scott kept things going this weekend.

Playing in the PGA Tour Americas qualifier in Dothan, Scott had a huge finish in the fourth round to sit at 14-under for the weekend, good for sixth overall and earn his PGA Tour Americas card as the tour enters its North American swing later this summer.

🔼 Fresh Face. Following yet another strong season in 2024-25, Coach Rigby and the Troy women’s hoops team are loading up for even more in 2025-26.

Late last week, the Trojans announced its eighth addition to the upcoming roster with the signing of Kamesha Moore from Florida Memorial.

A 5-8 guard, Moore led Florida Memorial to the SUN Conference Regular Season and Tournament Championship with an 89-63 win over SEU to punch a ticket to the NAIA National Tournament. Alongside SUN Coach of the Year Kevin Herod, the Lions finished 24-5, 13-3 SUN, and won their first-round matchup of the NAIA Tournament over Indiana NW 85-76.

Moore joins Detavia Salter, Saniya Jackson, Aniya Hubbard, Shakirah Edwards, Rachel Leggett, Marianah Mapour and Lana Koricanac.
