Selissa Bly remembers being a younger soccer player at Navarre and looking up to the seniors.
She’s now in that position, along with seven of her teammates, and they were recognized prior to the Raiders’ 4-0 win over Choctaw Tuesday night at Bennett C. Russell Stadium.
There was a glimmer of hope for Navarre’s boys basketball team in the final two minutes and 12 seconds of Tuesday night’s game against West Florida Tech.
Jonah Forrest knocked down two clutch 3-pointers, including one with 32.4 seconds to play that brought the Raiders within six.
Late Friday evening, the clock pushing 11 p.m., students worked to roll up mats, put away weights and remove platforms.

Tied at 28-28 and a younger lineup on the floor, Navarre’s girls basketball team put its depth on display in an opening-round battle against Keystone Heights in the Navarre Beach Holiday Classic Tuesday night.
Unfazed by the adversity starting them in the eyes, the Raiders rose to the challenge.
At around 11 p.m. last night the man responsible for taking deputies on a high-speed chase and shooting at a car near the Navarre Publix turned himself in. Grayson Zachary Eagan, 29, of Hilltop Drive in Pensacola is in custody in the Santa Rosa County jail and is charged with trafficking amphetamine, fleeing and eluding police, weapon offense, firing a weapon, possession of a weapon, damaging property and aggravated assault with a weapon.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Dec. 15 signed Senate Bill 6A, establishing the Toll Relief Program through the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), which will provide account credits to frequent commuters using toll roads across the state. The program will give Floridians with 35 or more toll transactions per month a 50% credit to their account.
The legislation, originally proposed by DeSantis in September of this year, was successfully passed during the recent Legislative Special Session. The Toll Relief Program begins on Jan. 1, 2023, and runs through Dec. 31, 2023.
Growing up, Dylan White wasn’t very religious. When White was 15 years old, he decided to search for religion.
That journey led him to Messianic Judaism, a sect which incorporates Jesus (or Yeshua) as Messiah into the more traditional aspects of Jewish life. Now he is starting his own Messianic Jewish ministry, New Light Community, in Navarre.
