Cross Country
Jesuit cross country has been among the top programs in the state for decades, capturing four State Championships in 1998, 2000, 2004, and 2005 (only soccer and baseball have more State crowns among Jesuit athletic programs) and a bevy of District and Region titles. Over the past 30 years, since 1996, Jesuit XC has earned 16 District and 12 Region crowns along with the 4 State titles. (See below the year-by-year results since 1996.) During the fall 2025 season, the Tigers, led by seniors Gabe Garcia '26, Lucas Rupp '26, and Diego Alvarado-Borjas '26, captured the District title at Al Lopez Park and were runner-up at the Region Meet in Fort Myers. Garcia won individual District honors and was runner-up at Region, and his 15:31 personal best ranks No. 3 all-time in Jesuit history, with Rupp tied for 5th at 15:55. Head coach Mike Phillips enters his 5th season in the fall of 2026, and his top runners include Austin Boyle '27, Noah Franks '28, Hayden Bruty '29, Hadrian Braddock '29, and Finn Arcos '29.
