CHOCTAW WINS: The Choctaw Indians' historic season will continue after a hard-fought three-game regional series win over St. Augustine.

After dropping Game 1 at home 3-2, the Indians stormed back with a 9-4 win in Game 2 and a 4-1 win in Game 3 to punch their ticket to the Elite 8 in the 2026 FHSAA Baseball State Championships.

Series highlights:

👉Maddox Gentry delivered a complete-game gem in Game 3 in his first start of the season — five hits, seven Ks, one run.
👉Jordan Figueroa broke Game 3 open with a two-run homer in the third.
👉Parker Powell stranded all three inherited runners in Game 2 with the bases loaded, striking out the three-hole hitter to escape the jam.

Choctaw will host the winner of Clay-Escambia in the Elite 8.

“Back here again. Back home again. We’re fired up to get the home crowd in here,” Head Coach David Weber said.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: In 2016, a young Blake Peters rode piggyback on Myles Betts as Choctaw celebrated a district championship. Ten years and 10 innings later, Betts was back at Choctaw to watch Peters and his teammates clutch a district title of their own.

For a senior whose family has been stitched into Choctaw for decades, it was the kind of moment you can't script.

Peters grew up right behind the school. His dad, Jeff, was a football star there. His mom, Heather, went there. His brother, Brady, played there. His sister, Brooklyn, teaches there now.

"Bloodline's a big thing," Peters said. "I bleed green from head to toe."

Last week, Peters launched the first home run of his career in Choctaw's 9-0 Sweet 16 win over Baker County, going 3-for-3 with three RBIs. The week prior, he scored the winning run in the Indians' 9-8 extra-innings district title win over Escambia, despite playing through a quad injury most of the season.

"He's no doubt a 100 percent kind of guy," head coach David Weber said. "He'd run through a brick wall for the program."

Off the field, Peters carries the same all-in approach. He’s a National Honor Society member, part of Link Crew, a Choctaw spirit boy this year, and at church every Sunday with his grandparents. He plans to attend the University of West Florida in the fall to study construction management, a path that started with his Uncle Greg Rynearson’s construction class at Pryor Middle School and stuck.

SWEET 16: Choctaw is heading back to the Sweet 16.

The Indians broke open a scoreless pitchers’ duel with a six-run outburst and never looked back, blanking Baker County 9-0 on Friday night to advance in the Class 5A state baseball playoffs.

“Back to back Sweet 16s for the boys is pretty awesome,” Choctaw Head Coach David Weber said. “We were competitive, played clean defense and made some big plays out there.”

Through four innings, Choctaw’s Trevor Camden and Baker County’s Nicholas Chowaniec matched each other pitch for pitch in a scoreless duel.

The deadlock broke when Jordan Figueroa and Isaiah Rohn singled and John Brown drew a walk to load the bases. Maddox Gentry followed with a single that scored both Rohn and Figueroa, opening the floodgates.

Blake Peters delivered the play of the game moments later, launching a three-run shot to left field for the first home run of his career and a 5-0 Choctaw lead.

“That broke it wide open,” Weber said. “Tonight, Blake got to see a little success that he deserves.”
