(Geronimo) — The Navarro boys and girls basketball teams won their final games at the old Navarro High School on Friday afternoon.
The Panther boys routed San Antonio Stacey 60-32. The victory was their sixth straight after going 4-0 in the Luling tournament to close out 2025.
Junior guard Bayley Burgess led Navarro with 19 points. Burgess hit three three-pointers in the first half as the Panthers built a 19-point lead after the first 16 minutes.
Panther coach Jarrett Tyler praised Burgess after the win.
“He had a 32-point outing in the (Luling) tournament. He’s shooting the ball well right now,” Tyler said. “It’s all within what we’re supposed to be doing. It’s all within our offense. There are good looks and he’s very capable of knocking them in.”
Weston Shields added 11 points in the victory. Navarro has won 12 games this season—already one more than it won all of last season.
The Runnin’ Lady Panthers were also victorious in their final game at the old school earlier in the day.
The Lady Panthers defeated Lockhart 50-37. Senior forward Trinity Loftice poured in 12 points. Loftice knocked down a pair of three-pointers and was active on the defensive end with multiple blocks.
Lady Panther head coach Nick Israel commented on his senior leader after Friday’s victory.
“Trinity is a super smart kid. She can play all five spots,” Israel said. “She knows where everyone is supposed to be. And she just reads it well. So, it’s no surprise that she was there to make those plays.”
Camden Shields also had 12 points while Elle Hepp added 10.
