65 days to kickoff…
 
The 2022 High School football season will get underway when the Navarre Raiders travel to Fort Walton Beach to take on the Vikings on 26 Aug 2022.
 
65 games ago – Tate 23, Navarre 22 (2OT) – (Playoffs – 2015)
 
Tate…0 0 7 6 3 7 -23
Navarre…0 7 0 6 3 6 – 22
 
Hasaan Williams rushed for 176 yards on 33 carries & found the end zone twice and Bo Hering led the defense with 11 tackles, but it was not enough as the Raiders 2015 season came to an abrupt halt in double overtime.
 
Coach Jay Walls became the all-time winningest coach in school history, when he surpassed Coach Larry Olson’s 30 wins in Week 3.
 
65th win in school history – Navarre 56, Niceville 33 (2011)
 
Niceville…14 13 6 0 – 33
Navarre…14 28 0 14 – 56
 
The night belonged to RB Dwayne Carter as he set the school record for yards rushing (at that time) & rushing TDs in a single game. He finished the night with 307 yards rushing & found the end zone on six different occasions. The six rushing TDs are still a school record (tied with his younger brother, Michael).

WR Brad Leggett pitched in six receptions for 129 yards & the other two Raider scores. The late Devin Colonel led the defense with 15 tackles & David Docarmo was perfect on the night as he went 8-8 on extra points.
