Maddux's sister, Macee Jones, is a hair specialist and co-owner of ThriveSalon.

Maddux Madsen’s father has a background in coaching baseball, which influenced Maddux’s approach to sports.

Madsen and his team, the Boise State Broncos, lost a match against the Penn State Nittany Lions with a score of 31-14 on December 31, 2024.

  • Madsen was born to his father, Eric Madsen, and his mother, Jessica Madsen. His father is an American baseball coach and former player.
  • He was raised with his four brothers, Mick, McGwire, Mays, and Murphy, and one sister, Macee Jones.

He is the only quarterback in the country with at least 2,700 yards, 22 touchdowns passing, and three or fewer interceptions.

Maddux Madsen’s Parents Named Him After Baseball Legends

Maddux Jeter Madsen, 21, was born on August 1, 2003, in American Fork, Utah, United States, to Eric Madsen and Jessica Oveson Madsen, who tied the knot in 1997.

Madsen’s first and middle names are a nod to two Hall of Famers, pitcher Greg Maddux and shortstop Derek Jeter.

Before his birth, his mother, Jessica, watched from the hospital as Greg tossed five innings of two-hit ball for the Dodgers against the Braves.

However, the timing was purely coincidental; his parents had already picked out his name before then.

His father, Eric, graduated from Bonneville High School in Idaho Falls, Idaho, where he lettered in three sports.

Eric played college baseball at Eastern Utah from 1991 to 1992 before transferring to Southern Utah.

He then served as the head baseball coach at Eastern Utah from 1997 to 2003 and at Utah Valley from 2009 to 2021.

Eric took Utah Valley to its first NCAA Regional in 2016. Earlier, he was the Wolverines’ head coach for the last 13 seasons and an assistant coach for the five years prior.

According to UVU, Madsen left Utah Valley University with a 309-363 career record and a 170-114 clip in conference games.

His mother, Jessica, is active on her Instagram handle, posting pictures with her family.

On November 16, 2021, she posted a photo with her husband, Eric, and celebrated their 24th marriage anniversary. She wrote,

We have come A LONG way in 24 years (swipe for proof🤪) and I think we are building something pretty great! (Again swipe for proof 💃). Every year brings a different test but I’m not complaining. We have been so blessed and continue to see those blessings. I know it will surprise you all (jokes) but our marriage isn’t perfect 🤷🏼‍♀️ but I am so glad I get to do life with this guy! Happy Anniverary to us!!! 24 years going strong! Eternity to go 🤍
