Oak Mountain's soccer programs have been two of the best programs in the country during the last twenty years. The boys' soccer team won four 6A state championships, in 2005, 2007, 2008, and 2011, as well as three consecutive 7A championships from 2015 to 2017. In addition to these state championships, the Eagles were voted as national champions in 2005 and 2016. The girls' soccer program has been very successful, as well, winning AHSAA Class 6A titles in 2012 and 2014, and Class 7A championships in 2015 and 2021, being named national champions by MaxPreps in 2014.

On the hardwood, the Eagles have found recent success, advancing to their first-ever state semifinal berth in 2020, where the Eagles lost to eventual champion R. E. Lee-Montgomery. In 2021, the Eagles once again advanced to the AHSAA Final Four, this time finding success in the two games, winning the team's first AHSAA state championship, at any classification, after defeating the Enterprise Wildcats 41–37.
