Kirstyn Joiner is excited to be in her first season as the head coach of Milton’s softball team.

She isn’t a stranger to the sport. Joiner played down the road at Pace when she was in high school, helping the Patriots win a state title in 2007, and shined collegiately at the University of Mobile.

If a preseason win over Milton last Wednesday night was any indication of the season ahead, Pace’s baseball team is set up for success.

Milton linebacker Brodie Gillis has spent his entire high school career working for the opportunity to play college football.

Earlier this month, the senior standout reached his goal, signing a national letter of intent with Huntingdon College.

Before last season began, Lexi Shelby remembers she and her teammates talking about making a run at state.

It ended up being more than just talk as the Patriots reached the final four and now go into this season eager to repeat it. They’ll have a chance to do it with 16 players back, including the entire starting lineup.

Mary Mancin and her Milton Panther girls soccer team rolled back into town from Jacksonville in the early hours of last Wednesday morning.

The Panthers finished third in the state at the FHSAA 2A meet Friday at the R. Marion Craig Coliseum in Port St. Joe.

The Patriots finished as the state runner-up Thursday in Port St. Joe, scoring 18 points to secure an impressive finish at the FHSAA girls weightlifting meet at the R. Marion Craig Coliseum.

In a game against Navarre a couple of weeks ago, Milton’s boys basketball team seemed poised for a big road win.

The Panthers led by 17 in the second half but soon saw that lead slip from their grasp in a 53-52 loss to the Raiders.
