Hall of Fame

The Clearwater Central Catholic Marauder Athletics Hall of Fame was established in 2001 to recognize alumni, coaches, and contributors who made a significant contribution to the school’s athletic history. We recognize their exceptional athletic ability, sportsmanship on the field, scholarship in the classroom, and high-quality leadership both on and off the field. We aim to recognize individuals who established a personal reputation for character in the community, even after their graduation from CCC.

We aim to remind the new generation of athletes of the tradition of honor and respect they must strive to uphold and embody.
