Athletics

In 2004, Terra Linda High School's varsity football team was the NCS 2A Redwood Empire Football Champion. In 2018, the varsity football team won the MCAL title and won their first round NCS game against Pinole Valley High School. [4]

Terra Linda Football dominated the MCAL under Coach Don Lucas from 1966 to 1980; winning ten league titles and the NCS 3A division in 1979 and 1980. The '79 team featured a veer offense and a stout 4-3 defense that allowed only 2 touchdowns all year. The 1980 Trojans did a repeat and won the NCS 3A Championship against El Molino on Quagmire Bailey Field in Santa Rosa.

The men's soccer program won the 2014 NCS title, the 2015-16 MCAL title and 2019-20 MCAL title. [5]

The women's golf team won the 2017, 2018, and 2019 MCAL titles. [6]
