Ethan Lyon of Hickory Ridge High School, Ryan Bergsmith of Central Cabarrus High School and Ruby Eason of South Stanly High School are among 13 students Hudson nominated from across the 8th District this year.
“Nominating students to a service academy is one of my most important duties,” said Hudson. “Ethan, Ryan and Ruby are among the best of our community and best of our nation. I deeply appreciate their willingness to serve in our nation’s military.”
