Clio was a charter member of the Genesee County B League, formed in 1950. In 1960, Clio, along with seven other schools from around Genesee County left the GCBL to form the Big Eight Conference. The conference would later be renamed the Big Nine Conference in 1968 after the addition of an additional member school.

Clio remained a member of the Big Nine Conference through the end of the 2004-05 school year, when the district applied for and was granted membership into the Flint Metro League for competitive reasons. While in the Big Nine, Clio teams had great success in baseball, wrestling, girls' golf, and girls' basketball.

Though Clio has no recognized Michigan High School Athletic Association team state championships, the school finished as state runner-up for girls' cross-country (1980), and girls' golf (2000–2006). The school has had several individual state champions in boys' wrestling and girls' cross-country.

Recently the boys' cross-country team took second place at the Michigan State Spartan Invitational (2012).

The press box located at the Clio High School's Pride Stadium was renamed in 1991 in honor of long time Clio resident and former Board of Education member Robert Sheppard. Sheppard, who was the public address announcer for the Mustangs for many years, was killed in a collision in Chesaning, MI in 1990.
