This exclusive honor is reserved for only 50 of the best teams in the entire country. Given the fact that nearly 17,000 varsity teams compete, that puts the Buccaneers in the top one-fifth of one percent!

In order to be eligible, the team not only had to be nationally ranked, but also had to win a state championship. Beating Opelika 31-0 on Dec. 7 marked the completion of an incredible 16-0 season — and earned Hoover an invitation to the Tour of Champions.

Please join us as we celebrate with the football team, coaching staff, students and fans on Jan. 10, 2013 at 2 p.m. in the gym during a school assembly.
