The Raider varsity offense never got in gear at the Kickoff Classic won by Milton 6 – 0 on their home field Aug 21. The Raiders managed only one first down and that was on the last play of the game. Milton completely shut down the running game of the Raiders. Throughout the game, the Panther defense swarmed to the ball and stopped the ball carrier before they could gather momentum. The Raider passing game beat themselves as several first down passes were dropped in the first quarter. In the second quarter, the Raiders opted for short out patterns that resulted in receptions for no gain. Pressure by the Panther defense resulted in several passes by senior Matt Webb to be underthrown. Until the last play of the game, the longest pass play covered three yards.

The Navarre Raiders offensive and defensive squads scrimmaged Aug. 15 for the second consecutive Friday. However, when the Raiders take the field at 7 p.m., Aug. 21 for the Kick-Off Classic, they will see Milton Panther players across the line of scrimmage from them.

In the years before Hurricane Ivan, the Tiger Point Golf Club pro shop was located in a stand-alone building near the edge of the parking lot. After Ivan, the club’s previous owner decided to move the pro shop into the clubhouse. The Gulf Breeze City Council Monday started the process to move it back.
