High school sports are in full swing across Escambia and Santa Rosa County.
Football wrapped up Week 2 last week, with Pensacola Catholic delivering a statement win over Pace and four more area teams moving to 2-0 .
Golf returned this week as well, with defending District 1-3A champion Tate starting their season with a win over Jay and Escambia, while defending District 1-1A champion Pensacola Catholic narrowly won a quad with Pace, Gulf Breeze and Milton to kick off its season.
More than half the area’s cross country teams competed at the Pine Forest Eagle Invitational, with Pensacola Christian leading the area with a third place finish.
That means plenty of nominees for this week’s Florida Power & Light PNJ Boys Athlete of the Week. Jay football’s Jaymes Youngblood brought home the first award for 2026-27, winning 74.7 percent of the vote.
Now it’s time to make your voice heard again. Voting closes at 11 a.m Saturday, and the winners will be announced each Monday after the poll closes. Each weekly winner will be awarded a PNJ Athlete of the Week shirt provided by BSN SPORTS. An athlete can only win one time per season.
Nominees will be accepted via phone or email, but the poll is decided by PNJ staff. Send nominations by Sunday night.
Here are the nominees.
