Ludlow High School is well known for its sporting teams in soccer, cross country, track and field, and wrestling.

The town's most popular sport traditionally is soccer thanks to Ludlow's large Portuguese-American population.

Ludlow's talent for soccer has been particularly clear in recent years, as they have made four straight appearances in the Massachusetts state championship game, winning three of them (2008, 2010, and 2011).

The track and field team saw great success with a streak of meet wins stretching seven seasons from 2003-2009.

The newspaper was in final consideration for an appearance on the MTV reality show The Paper.
