THE 'SQUEEZE': In the bottom of the seventh inning of a tie game, with the bases loaded and a state championship hanging in the balance, Hudson Quinn knew exactly what was coming.

“I was actually feeling pretty confident before the at bat, just because I knew it was going to be a bunt situation with the bases loaded,” Quinn said. “I’m confident bunting and getting the bunt down because we do it every day, so I was feeling pretty good.”

Quinn, a senior catcher, laid down a textbook su***de squeeze that scored Declan Fowler for the walk-off run, lifting South Walton to a 6-5 victory over North Broward Prep and the program’s first baseball state championship. The Seahawks finished 30-4 overall and a perfect 9-0 in the postseason.

“I was obviously stressed because it’s the bottom of the seventh inning, it’s a tie ball game and a state championship,” Quinn said. “But I was pretty confident that we were going to get it done. And we did. It was awesome.”

In our interview with Quinn, he discusses the rematch, North Broward Prep’s rally, the ‘squeeze’, and the emotions after.
