He put on his Georgia SEC Championship hat — Jody Davis wanted to show off his Bulldog pride in front of the camera– and in his usual casual manner, the first-year manager of the Pensacola Blue Wahoos started talking about the escape from defeat act his team pulled off against the Montgomery Biscuits Friday night.
Mike Baker was the first one across finish line Saturday morning at the inaugural Navarre Raider 5K, but his victory wasn’t nearly as important as the cause he was supporting.
They come off the field sweaty and aching, even a little tired, the grind of a two-hour practice on a hot Friday afternoon clearly taking its toll, but they feel good about the work they have put in, not just for this day but the first week of preseason camp as a whole.
PATRICK AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. (AFNS) — Air Force veteran Stacey Pavenski, 46, of Palm Bay, Florida, has post traumatic stress disorder, but she didn’t get it from serving in combat.

This is the last full weekend before our children go back to school. I can see some of you jumping for joy as you read this. I miss those days, but now my daughter, who is a teacher, calls and tells me how excited she is for the first day of school. Funny how that happens. Our reporters will be out at the schools taking pictures of children starting their day on Monday. If you see us, say “hi” and let us know your child’s name so we get it right. We hate it when we get it wrong! We chronicle students’ journeys through 18 years of school. We have it all – it is just one of the many reasons you should subscribe. We try to keep track of our students after high school too – so if you know of a student who has graduated and is doing great things let us know so we can brag about them. Once we were reviewing a bid for an engineering company to put in our reefs and we saw the name of one of our former Navarre High students on the bid. That’s exciting work – so we did a story about her. We love bragging about our students. We wish all our teachers a great school year.
