Recently, Stacker compiled a list of the best high schools for sports in Alabama using data from Niche. These rankings factor in parent and student surveys on sports, total high school enrollment, K-12 sports championships, number of sports, and athletic participation rates.

Although heavyweights like Hoover High and Mountain Brook High topped the list, one Tuscaloosa-area school made it into the Top 10 of Stacker's list.
