Athletics

[edit]

St. Amant High athletics competes in the LHSAA. The Gators have competed in the LHSAA's highest classification since the 1983-84 school year (AAAA through 1990-91, 5A since 1991-92).

St. Amant has fierce rivalries in all sports with East Ascension High School in Gonzales and Dutchtown High School in Geismar. The Gator football, baseball and boys basketball teams also are a rival of Baton Rouge Catholic High School.

In 2022, the LHSAA redistricted Catholic with other schools from East Baton Rouge Parish, while St. Amant, East Ascension and Dutchtown were moved into a district with three high schools in Livingston Parish. Previously, the LHSAA used U.S. 190 as a dividing line for Class 5A districts in the Baton Rouge area.
