Marauder Cross Country

Marauder Cross Country has one of the most decorated histories in Florida high school athletics. Since the program's inaugural season in 1978, the Marauders have built a tradition of excellence that spans decades and coaching generations. The boys team won five consecutive state championships from 1998 to 2002, a feat unmatched by any other program in Florida history. The girls team claimed five state titles of their own. Head coach Nathan Hoffman now leads the program, carrying forward a tradition that has produced Hall of Fame coaches, All Big Bend honorees, and some of the most accomplished distance runners in Maclay history.

State Champions (Girls): 1997, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2005
