When it comes to determining the high school with the greatest sports alumni, it all depends on your taste. Do you prefer quality over quantity? Or both?
Galileo (San Francisco) certainly has the quality. Three Hall of Famers in three different sports at one time roamed the halls of the San Francisco school.
Then there's
Oak Hill Academy (Mouth of Wilson, Va.), which has had plenty of quantity. No school has sent more players to the NBA than the Virginia-based school.
But for quality and quantity, take a look at
Long Beach Poly (Calif.). The school that has sent the most players to the NFL (more than 50) also has produced great baseball players, track stars and one of the all-time greats in women's tennis.
