Coach Rick Rothman of Spanish River sent me a list of the winningest cross country coaches in the state's history. After both the Holy Trinity boys and girls won their seventh state titles each, Coach Doug Butler remains at the top of the list with 14 total championships in his coaching career. Take a look at who moved up the list after picking up state titles in 2013!
