Udall’s Logan Mason is ready to make his senior year count, energized by the chance to build momentum across multiple sports.
“This year I am most excited about us finally winning some games during basketball and getting some hype back into our student sections,” Mason said. “Hopefully we can keep going with that and bring it into the upcoming baseball and track and field season.”
Mason has been busy in the offseason sharpening his skills in several sports, balancing basketball, baseball, and track training.
“With basketball, me and a few of my other teammates competed in a summer tournament along with having practices with the whole team and playing pick-up games at the rec,” Mason said. “I am more of a baseball player myself. I played on a collegiate team for baseball and got reps in pitching. I have also gotten pretty good at track and field.”
Mason has set ambitious goals for both his individual and team performances across all sports this year.
“For basketball, I would like to end my senior season with a winning record and possibly make it to the state championship,” Mason said.
Looking beyond high school, Mason has clear plans for further education and his career.
“I am taking college classes at Cowley College for welding and I plan to finish that, graduate high school and then go back to Cowley and finish my degree up and then possibly take another class for non-destructive testing to further improve my employability skills,” Mason said. “After all is done I will look at getting into the work field as a welder.”
