Jason Kisor has announced his resignation as the head coach of the Navarre Raider flag football team.


Kisor made the announcement public last Tuesday on social media.

Nine wins and not much hope is what the Navarre Raider softball program looked like just two years ago.


Karsyn Riddle, a sophomore at the time, thought about walking away.

If there’s one thing Navarre Raider head coach Garrett Bagley loves about his football team as spring practice rolls on, it’s something that doesn’t show up in a playbook or practice plan.


“I’m really pleased with the intangibles,” Bagley said.

A handful of Navarre athletes did well enough at the Region 1-3A meet at Pine Forest on May 2 to secure a spot at the FHSAA 3A state meet.

State is up next for the Navare Rader boys weightlifting team, which is set to compete on Thursday at the RP Funding Center in Lakeland.

Navarre’s softball team is regional tournament bound.


The Raiders are the No. 3 seed and will play host to Buchholz on Thursday night in a Region 1-6A quarterfinal.

Natalia Taylor’s base hit in the top of the fifth inning of  Thursday’s District 1-6A champinoship game extended Navarre’s lead over Pace to 3-1.


Enthusiasm flowed through the dugout, the players chanting and cheering as Nadia Rivera crossed the plate thanks to Taylor’s bat.

Zeaven Jones said he hit a personal-best at a weightlifting meet earlier this year, and he knew then big things were ahead.


He wasn’t wrong. Jones is headed to state for the first time and will compete with the Raiders next Thursday in the FHSAA 3A meet at the RP Funding Center in Lakeland.

Navarre’s softball team punched a ticket to another District 1-6A championship game by beating Crestview 2-0 in the semifinal round on Tuesday night.

Greg Boozer has done just about everything around the Navarre boys basketball program in his more than 20 years with it.


He’s been a varsity assistant coach. A freshman and JV coach. He has driven the bus. He’s kept the scorebook and clock at games. He’s even swept the floors.
