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.

Gabby Johnson stepped onto the podium twice during the District 1-3A girls weightlifting meet last Monday at Pace.


The senior finished third for Navarre in Olympic and traditional in the 199-lbs. weight class, helping the Raiders finish second overall as team. But her success only tells part of her story.

Navarre’s girls soccer team had an opportunity to perhaps steal the No. 2 seed from Pace for the District 1-6A tournament.


But a penalty kick late in the action, resulting from a questionable call that left head coach Rob Simon frustrated, proved to be the difference in a 1-0 loss to the Patriots on the road last Tuesday night.

Emily (Madril) Sams is headed to Los Angeles to play for Angel City after spending the first three seasons of her career in Orlando.


The former Navarre Raider is headed to a new team via a trade in exchange for $650,000 intraleague transfer funds.
