One handed player to Walk-On at Florida
Published on October 23, 2013 by Scott Shirley · No CommentsZach Hodskins is a deadly shooter from three. He shot over 60 % from downtime last season. You would think with that the senior from Georgia would have a ton of scholarship offers rolling in, but he doesn’t . The main reason is because Hodskins only has one hand. You will see in the video below that Hodskins has plenty of game.
Billy Donovan is one of the best coaches in the country and he has offered Hodskins a spot on the Florida Gators as a preferred Walk On and he has not accepted that offer. Though he will have to pay his way to school he will be guaranteed a spot on the team.
“It’s always been my dream growing up,” Hodskins said. “I never expected it to be like this, but the hard work has paid off. I’m ecstatic I’m going to be a Florida Gator.”
“I’m coming on as a preferred walk-on, but I’ll be treated like every other player,” Hodskins said. “If I work hard, Coach Donovan told me I’ll have a chance to play.”
Here is video of Hodskins, I would take him on my team.
