Navarre’s football team held its second scrimmage under the lights this past Friday night, hosting its Maroon and White Game at Bennett C. Russell Stadium.

Raider head coach Jay Walls thought the team took big steps forward on both sides of the ball.

Navarre softball players were all smiles as they carried their bags to the bus late Monday morning ahead of leaving town for the next big test on their schedule.

The Raiders were scheduled to take on Hagerty in a Region 1-6A semifinal Tuesday night at 7 p.m. EST in Oviedo. It’s their first trip to the second round of the regional since 2011.

Six runs. And then five runs. The route was on. Navarre’s softball team was pounding away on Tate in a District 1-6A semifinal at home on a Monday evening in early May.

The Raiders score 14 runs in all in a 10-run win over the Aggies that secures their berth in the regional for the first time since 2019.

Emily Madril has moved past the excitement of National Women’s Soccer League Draft, where she was taken third overall by the Orlando Pride, and has settled into life as a pro in the United States.
