The University of West Florida football team isn’t playing Saturday after its game was canceled due to Hurricane Isaias.

The Argos were scheduled to take on Northeastern State out of Oklahoma at Darrell Gooden Stadium in what would have been their first home game of October.

It’s time to take a look at the latest round of regional rankings for high school football.

Keep in mind that the Florida High School Athletic Association regional rankings look a little different this year.

History is within reach for the Navarre Raider volleyball team, which will play for its first district championship in program history next Thursday.

The Raiders (11-12) are the top seed in the three-team District 1-6A tournament and get a bye into the championship round, hosting either Pace (9-13) or Crestview (9-13) for the crown.

The threat of Hurricane Isaias has washed out every area high school football game on the schedule this week.

Most teams moved their games to Thursday to get ahead of the storm, but an announcement was made  Wednesday that no after school activities were permitted in Santa Rosa County on Thursday, Friday or Saturday.

The final FHSAA regional volleyball rankings of the regular season were released Tuesday, giving everyone an idea of where teams are sitting heading into district tournament play as well as their potential for a regional tourney berth.

Navarre grad Julia Irmen recently reached the 2,000-assist mark of her college volleyball career.

Irmen is in her third season at Rose-Hulman, an NCAA Division III school in Indiana.

The University of West Florida football team will now kick off its game against Northeastern State at 1 p.m. instead of 4 p.m. on Saturday at Darrell Gooden Stadium.

One week of October football is in the books. Here’s a look back at how everything played out for the teams in our coverage area last week.

Navarre and Pace have consistently been among the better cross-country teams in the area this season.

They opened October with Booker T. Washington’s Wildcat Invitational at the University of West Florida on Saturday.

During a weather delay late in the first half of Friday night’s homecoming game against Fort Walton Beach, Navarre Raider head coach Garrett Bagley talked outside the locker room with the athletic director and an official about trying to move forward.

His team led 17-6 with 2:15 to go until halftime. With the Raiders in position for their first victory, Bagley was determined to play football.
