SUMMARY: Hawtin Buchanan, a Biloxi High alumnus and former Ole Miss pitcher, has quickly found success as the head baseball coach at his alma mater. Since his appointment just over a year ago, Buchanan has led the Biloxi High baseball team to an impressive 22-7 record in his first season and a strong start in the subsequent year. Despite a brief stint in professional baseball and an initial inclination towards sports media, Buchanan found his calling in coaching after beginning as a substitute teacher and assistant coach. Under his leadership, the team clinched a region championship in 2023 for the first time since 2019, although they were eliminated early in the playoffs.
