Runner-up isn’t bad at all when one considers Navarre was in a District 1-3A girls weightlifting meet on Saturday that featured back-to-back state champion Pace.


The Raiders placed second in Olympic and traditional in the highly competitive meet at Pace as the road to state began. Double champions Izzy Zach and Olivia Hall led the way.

The District 1-3A girls weightlifting meet is set for 2 p.m. Saturday at Pace.


It was originally scheduled for Wednesday but had to be moved due to the historic snowstorm that hit Northwest Florida this week.

Last season ended on a low note for the Navarre Raider softball team, with the Raiders dropping their last five games.


But a new coach and renewed optimism has the team feeling good about what’s ahead in 2025.

Navarre’s Aaden Jackson thought about playing football when he was younger. But it wasn’t long before he was hooked on basketball.

After an historic snowstorm in Northwest Florida that closed schools all week, the District 1-6A boys and girls soccer tournaments are set to get started this weekend.


Navarre’s boys and girls soccer teams are both seeded second and have a bye in the first round. Meanwhile, Pace and Milton will square off Saturday in girls and boys soccer.

With the final week of the regular season coming up soon, several area teams remain in playoff contention.

Isabella Miranda came up with a steal that set up a second chance opportunity for the Navarre Raider girls basketball team in the fourth quarter of a game against Pensacola Monday afternoon.


The Raiders eventually cashed in, with Gabby Johnson knocking down a jumper near the free throw line.

Leland Erickson made quite the impression during his freshman year on Navarre’s varsity lacrosse team.


He led the team in goals, finding the back of the net 26 times and also dished out 17 helpers.
