Athletics
Floyd Central has a rich history of great athletic achievements. Among the most decorated sports are wrestling, tennis, golf, and cross country. The wrestling team had won virtually every sectional and regional championship. The tennis team has gone to semi-state repeatedly but has failed to win the elusive state championship (8 final fours). Since semi-state was part of the state tournament, the boys' team has made it to every event. Cross Country is the school's most successful sport holding 5 of the school's 7 state titles. Cross country also has the most semi-state titles. The girls' cross country team is the most decorated, with four state titles from 1989 through 1992, with the boys' and girls' teams sweeping the 1991 finals. The boys basketball team was highly successful throughout the 1970s and 1980s, winning numerous titles at the various stages of the state tournament. Recently, football has well represented the school with the first of several HHC titles in 1996, along with Sectional wins and Regional appearances in 1998 and 2009. Floyd Central Dazzlers Dance Team coached by Todd Sharp has Won 10 consecutive National Championship Titles in Large Varsity Pom Division and 1 National Championship title in the Large Varsity Hip Hop Division at Universal Dance Association High School Dance Team Championships, which is more than any high school in the nation.
