Five wins. That’s what Navarre finished the year with in 2022.
The Raiders were at eight wins going into the final week of the regular season, and based on that alone, you have to say there has been improvement.

I’ve said it about the girls when it comes to weightlifting, and the same can be said about the boys.
When it comes to this corner of Northwest Florida, the athletes here dominate the sport.

It’s a start. That was my initial thought when I learned that Santa Rosa County is dipping its toes into the middle school sports game.
Starting this coming school year, the county will finally offer what we’ll call an appetizer menu of sports for junior high athletes. Cross-country, track and 3-on-3 basketball are the options those athletes will have an opportunity to compete in.

I’m going to say for 364 days of the year, most of America could care less about women’s college basketball.

For the most part, politicians need to leave sports alone. That includes Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
He and lawmakers in the state have these big dreams of trying to reshape the FHSAA.

I received an email the other day from one of those companies in the middle of somewhere about NCAA basketball.
Call it good timing, especially with March Madness getting rolling this week with the NCAA tournament.
It lists the top 10 best cities for college hoops fans and the top 10 worst cities.

Alabama freshman basketball star Brandon Miller is the biggest story in college basketball right now. And for all the wrong reasons.
Innocent in the eyes of the law, he’s drawn unwanted attention in the national spotlight because of his connection to a murder.

I know Tony Carter has wanted to be a head high school football coach for the longest time. And now, the long-time Navarre football assistant will get that chance.
He’s the new head coach at Pine Forest, and when it comes to home run hires, the Eagles knocked it out of the park in landing Carter to run the show.
