 On Wednesday, Dec. 3, the Maclay Girls weightlifting team had a meet against the Blountstown Tigers, and the Marauders went home with multiple personal records (PR’s). In the end, Maclay got first in Olympic and second in traditional. Many athletes got first in their weight class including freshman Bhavya Tatini, juniors Katie Nation and Ella Pike and seniors Palmer Webb, Mya Champion and Josey Becker.

“My favorite part is seeing insanely strong girls lift like their life depends on it,” freshman Olivia Gibson said. “Their determination and passion is always there.”

Multiple Marauders had PRs at this meet including Gibson, Webb and senior Kate Bascom. With another successful meet finished, the Maclay girls weightlifting is on track to have another successful season. Come and support your Maclay Marauders at their next meet away on Monday, Dec. 8, against Coffee County.
