Navarre’s girls soccer team established early on Thursday night that it wasn’t going to back down from Niceville in the District 1-6A championship game.


Aiming for a second consecutive district crown, the Raiders cannot be faulted for their effort against the Eagles. And even after Niceville broke a scoreless tie late in the first half, Navarre kept battling.

There were tears, long embraces and looks of disbelief, the usual after effects of a heartbreaking loss.


Navarre’s boys soccer team felt it all as it walked off the field late Tuesday night at Ashton Brosnaham Park, the raw sting of defeat cutting deep after its dream of playing for a district championship was dashed by Tate.

Navarre’s girls soccer team is headed to the District 1-6A title game.


The Raiders advanced with a 1-0 win over Tate Tuesday night in a semifinal showdown at Ashton Brosnaham Park in Pensacola.

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.

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.
