Navarre’s boys soccer season ended Friday with a 4-0 loss to Niceville in the semifinal round of the District 1-6A tournament at the Ashton Brosnaham Complex in Pensacola.

Regional girls weightlifting meets are set to take place this week and there is no shortage of area lifters who will compete for the right to go state. Pace hosts the Region 1-3A meet on Thursday, with the host Patriots, Navarre and Milton all competing there.  Jay and Central head to North Bay Haven on Friday for the Region 1-1A meet. 

Year 11 is almost officially in the books for me.
This Thursday marks my work anniversary and it’s hard to believe more than a decade has gone by since my move to Florida.

Everette Alford has landed his new job as a football coach.
The former Lighthouse Private Christian Academy head coach will take on the same role at Port St. Lucie.

As Pace celebrated a thrilling victory Thursday night, several of the Navarre soccer players gathered around their goalie after a penalty kick shootout dashed the Raiders’ hopes of playing for a district championship.

Navarre’s boys basketball team wraps up the regular season this week and has shown is it making strides this year under first year head coach Todd Arasmith.

Aden Ottley had a good look at the goal and knew he had an opportunity to make something happen.
With under 10 minutes to play in a tightly contested District 1-6A quarterfinal against Crestview on Wednesday, the senior fired a shot right past the goalie, breaking a scoreless tie and ultimately shifting the momentum in the Navarre Raiders’ favor.

Abi Hackl made back-to-back 3-pointers in the third quarter of Navarre’s girls basketball game against Pace, firing up her teammates and the crowd as the Raiders extended their lead against the Patriots.
Hackl is a role player, so she doesn’t normally grab the spotlight. But this was her time to shine and she made the most of it in a 59-37 win.

With less than two weeks to play in the regular season, several area basketball teams are still among the best in the region.

Navarre’s baseball team won seven games last season, but despite some of the tough moments, there were positives.
The Raiders hope to carry some of those into the 2026 campaign, and head coach John Crossley will tell you the energy in practice has been strong.
