Lady Raiders upended by Milton

The Navarre Raiders High School softball team gave up three runs to Milton and the top of the first inning and was never able to overcome the deficit, falling in a key district game, 5-2, at Navarre on March 19.

 "We got off to a slow start," said head coach Scott Murphy. "We've done this the last couple of games - give up some runs in the first few innings. Tonight, we got ourselves in a hole."

The Panthers (11-5 overall, 6-2 district) scored their three runs in the top of the first inning through the auspices of a walk, two singles and two wild pitches.
