Sports
Sebeka High School currently offers eleven sports, seven for boys (baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, track and field, and wrestling) and seven for girls (basketball, cheerleading, cross country, golf, softball, track and field, and volleyball). In many of these sports (cross country, football, wrestling, track and field, golf, and cheerleading), Sebeka is in a cooperative with Menahga High School known as United North Central (UNC). The colors of the combined teams are black and gold, and they are known as the Warriors.
The Trojans' boys basketball team made its first ever trip to the state tournament in 2009. The team returned to the state tournament in 2010, and lost to Minnesota Transitions in the state championship game, 61–52. Three of the Trojans' five starters (Joey Cuperus, John Clark, and Alex Brockpahler) were named to the All-Tournament team.
The Trojans' baseball team also advanced to the state tournament in 2010, the team's third such appearance. Sebeka advanced to the Class A title game for the first time in school history before losing to Eden Valley-Watkins, 7-4.

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Thy sports are fled and all thy charms withdrawn;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)
“There be some sports are painful, and their labor
Delight in them sets off. Some kinds of baseness
Are nobly undergone, and most poor matters
Point to rich ends.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Falling in love is the right adventure for those who dislike sports and travel.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
