Oroville High School's premiere sports are football, basketball, and baseball. The football team's have drastically declined the last few years. 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:
“In the past, it seemed to make sense for a sportswriter on sabbatical from the playpen to attend the quadrennial hawgkilling when Presidential candidates are chosen, to observe and report upon politicians at play. After all, national conventions are games of a sort, and sports offers few spectacles richer in low comedy.”
—Walter Wellesley (Red)
“...I didn’t come to this with any particular cachet. I was just a person who grew up in the United States. And when I looked around at the people who were sportscasters, I thought they were just people who grew up in the United States, too. So I thought, Why can’t a woman do it? I just assumed everyone else would think it was a swell idea.”
—Gayle Gardner, U.S. sports reporter. As quoted in Sports Illustrated, p. 85 (June 17, 1991)
“Falling in love is the right adventure for those who dislike sports and travel.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
