When Garwin and Green Mountain schools combined to form the GMG School District in 1987, they adopted the nickname 'Wolverines'. Prior to the consolidation, Garwin athletes were known as 'Roughriders'.

Student athletes can now compete in football, volleyball, cross country, boys' and girls' basketball, boys' and girls' track, boys' and girls' golf, baseball, softball, and share wrestling with East Marshall High School and swimming with Marshalltown High School.

GMG High School has 1 Iowa State High School Championship.The Wolverines claimed the 1987 Class A Iowa State Football Championship in their first year as a combined school. GMG beat Schleswig 20-17 in overtime on a Robbie Sinclair touchdown run. GMG, coached by Fred Weick, finished the 1987 season 12-0, with two overtime wins coming in the first game of the season (vs North Tama) and the '87 championship game.

GMG, and Garwin HS before it, also have a rich boys' basketball tradition. Garwin won many conference titles and made two runs to the Iowa State Basketball Tournament.

Garwin/GMG was long coached by Gary Peterson, who over his 33 years as head coach, amassed a record of 478 wins and 216 losses, which ranks him 34th all time in Iowa boys' basketball history.

GMG had a lot of success in the mid-90's winning back-to-back-to-back NICL West titles in boys' basketball and a district football title in 1999. The 2007-08 girls' basketball team, under coach Jay Freese, posted a record of 20-3 and made the program's first ever regional final.
