The men's basketball team has appeared in the Iowa High School Athletic Association tournament sixteen times since 1971,[14][15] with titles in 2003,[16] 2012,[17][18] and 2013.[19][20] The football, wrestling, baseball, track and field, cross country, and softball programs are shared with Rock Valley High School in Rock Valley, Iowa.[11] Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley is collectively known as the Nighthawks.
