White led Maclay with 830 rushing yards and six touchdowns on 141 carries. He also contributed as a receiver, finishing with 23 catches for 251 yards and another score. His performance earned him second-team All-Big Bend honors, and he is expected to be one of the team’s top returning players in the 2026 season.
Maclay finished 8-4 last fall and earned a playoff victory in Arie Slone’s first year as head coach.
White is the son of Florida State defensive coordinator Tony White.
