Career
Hursh attended Trinity Christian Academy in Addison, Texas. After graduating, the Pittsburgh Pirates selected Hursh in the sixth round of the 2010 Major League Baseball (MLB) Draft.

The Atlanta Braves selected Hursh with the 31st overall selection in the 2013 MLB Draft.[2] Hursh signed with the Braves, receiving a $1.7 million signing bonus, and was assigned to the Rome Braves of the Class A South Atlantic League.[3] With Rome, Hursh had a 0.67 ERA.[4] Hursh began the 2014 season with the Mississippi Braves of the Class AA Southern League.[5] Hursh spent the entire season there, making 26 starts and one relief appearance, with a 3.58 ERA.
