Please note that any disciplinary action that is taken against a PBA member based on the circumstances described in the GA. P.O.S.T. STATEMENT ON CBD USE by PEACE OFFICERS will NOT be covered under the PBA legal benefits as such activity does not involve the performance of law enforcement action.

GA Scholarship Recipient Keeps Family First

April 1, 2026

Underneath the Spanish-moss-covered oak trees of Savannah, Georgia, Hudson Zaragoza was raised in a very close-knit family. In fact, Hudson and his sister, Adeline, couldn?t possibly be much closer without being twins ? they were born just 11 months apart. Hudson?s dad, PBA member Michael Zaragoza, reflected on having two children so close together, noting that Hudson and Adeline were always very competitive. ?When Hudson played baseball, Adeline had to play. When Adeline started basketball, that meant that Hudson had to play basketball.? The two didn?t have much of a choice but to be close, though ? they were even in the same grade in school ? and Michael said that, despite the constant competition between his Irish twins, he wouldn?t have had it any other way.
