I've recently switched over from the 3 meals a day to the 4-5 meal plan and so far it's been good... but there's always room for improvement!

Breakfast:
(biggest meal of the day, right after 1 hour of morning exercises)

2 scrambled eggs (ketchup or hotsauce on top)
2 fruits (Banana, apple, orange, or grapes usually)
1 cup yogurt
1 8 oz glass Gatorade
1 8 oz glass water
1 8 oz glass 1% milk

Lunch:

Varies between 1 chicken breast, spaghetti w/meat sauce, or if all else fails a cheeseburger (All of them have similar carloies)
1 salad, no dressing (lettuce, carrots, tomatoes)
Approx 1 cup of rice or cooked vegetables
1 8 oz glass Gatorade
3 cups of water

Mid-day Meal

1 granola bar (Quaker)
1 piece fruit (Usually an orange)
1 1/4 serving Muscle Milk (water)

Dinner

Pretty much the same as lunch

Pre-Workout Shake (Muscle milk full serving, with 3 cups water)

Post-Workout Meal

3 cups brown rice
1 cup steamed mixed veggies
Dab of soy sauce
3 cups of water

This diet puts me at roughly a 200 calorie deficit according to my ballparked RMB and my estimated calorie burn during my 2-2.5 hours of exercise Mon-Fri. Is there any way I could improve this?

I'm currently 5'9" at 215. I've had my body fat measured with calipers, and the results have been somewhere between 24 and 27%, so I definitely need to keep on losing the fat.

I wake up for PT and do an hour of running 3 days a week (3-6 miles at a steady pace, one day of Last Man Up runs which are sprints to the front of the line, and a 10 minute mile pace jog), 1 day a week we play ultimate football (a lot of running, jumping), and 1 day we do muscle failure (pushups and situps until we can't use our arms or abs anymore).

I'm doing high rep low/medium weight a lot because I'm not looking to bulk, but that's just what I'm doing now. I change up my exercises a lot, probably once every 3 weeks, except the pullups, dips, boxing bag, and other bodyweight things I do.
