Team accomplishments

The football team was state championship contender in the 1990s and early 2000s before their move from AAAA (4A) to AAAAA (5A), which was Tennessee's highest class. Now there are six classes and Hillwood is in 5A.

The baseball team won Hillwood's first state championship in any sport when they won the TSSAA AAA state championship over Maryville High School in 1977. William Brennan, who would later be a Major League pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs, played for Hillwood in 1981.

The basketball team was coached by Ricardo Patton in 1986–87. He later went on to coach college basketball at the NCAA Division I level for Colorado and later for Northern Illinois.

Rivals

Hillwood has a few sports rivals. Their main rivalry is with Hillsboro High School in the annual "Battle of the Hills". Other rivals include John Overton High School, Glencliff High School, McGavock High School, and Father Ryan High School. Montgomery Bell Academy was previously a major rival as the schools are only two miles apart, but Hillwood has not been very competitive with that school since the public/private split.
