Judson Flint is the 2020 Mercer County Hall of Fame posthumous inductee.

Judson, a 1974 Farrell High graduate, was an outstanding two-sport athlete. He starred for Coach Bill Gargano's Night Riders and was one of the key players on Coach Eddie McCluskey's squad in the Steelers� run to the 1974 WPIAL Championship.

After a successful career at both California University of Pennsylvania and Memphis State, he was selected in the 7th round of the 1979 NFL Draft by the New England Patriots at cornerback.

A serious knee injury curtailed his time in New England. He was released and signed by the Cleveland Browns, for whom he appeared in 38 games in his 3-year stay in Cleveland. Judson was released by the Browns in 1983 after overcoming a severe ankle injury and was signed by the Buffalo Bills for a portion of the 83 season. He played in two AFC playoff games in Cleveland, most notably in their loss to the Oakland Raiders in Cleveland in the infamous �Red-Right 88� game when quarterback Brian Sipe was intercepted in the end zone by Oakland's Mike Davis as time was running out, securing the 12-10 Oakland win.

He was an active and enthusiastic member of the Cleveland Browns Alumni Organization and helped organize a golf fundraiser, arranging for the appearance of several former Browns in Mercer County.
