Glasgow High sports teams compete under the nickname "Scotties," in honor of the city's Scottish heritage and name.

The Scotties compete in football, soccer, basketball, baseball, softball, volleyball, golf, swimming, track and field, and cross country on the varsity levels, and lacrosse as a club sport.

The Glasgow Scottie Band traditionally wears full Scottish regalia as its uniform, and often includes bagpipe players.

The team consisted of Hunter Lindsey, Olivia Kiser, Jacob Cooper, Caleb Barfield, James Dyer, Garrison Page, Anish Patel and Rajeev Nair.
