West End High School is well known in the Birmingham area for its basketball program. The Lions won two straight class 6A State titles in the 96-97 and 97-98 school years. West End was also the last Birmingham City School to compete in the class 6A title game in football during the 93-94 school year. The Lions finished 13-2 that year and they were led by a defense dubbed the "dog pound."
