Basketball for the boys and girls are usually pretty talented competing in a very tough league with schools about twice their size but, they hold their own under coaches Rob Anderson (boys coach) and Tom Frazier (girls coach). The track and cross country teams have been solid having at least one state participant almost every year. Oroville's wrestling team always has a solid group of guys and on average produces at least one state qualifier a year. Oroville cross country team is also considered one of their best sports teams. In 2009 their boys and girls teams both qualified first in their division and went to state.

Famous quotes containing the word sports:
“Sweet smiling village, loveliest of the lawn,
Thy sports are fled and all thy charms withdrawn;
Amidst thy bowers the tyrant’s hand is seen,
And desolation saddens all thy green;
One only master grasps the whole domain,
And half a tillage stints thy smiling plain;”
—Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)
“It is usual for a Man who loves Country Sports to preserve the Game in his own Grounds, and divert himself upon those that belong to his Neighbour.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
“Come, my Celia, let us prove
While we may the sports of love;
Time will not be ours forever,
He at length our good will sever.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
