It is probably the effect of living in the shadow of an enormously successful girls program...one that probably gets the implicit advantage normally seen by boys teams at most schools with regards to all forms of support.

Their district usually plays both boys and girls on the same night but at opposite schools (Boys Fresh, JV, & Varsity @ team A and Girls Fresh, JV, & Varsity @ team B). In most cases, more people attend the boys games. However, it is often reversed at Oregon City.

It might have something to do with the girls team winning 3 national championships in the 90's and 11 state championships since 1992 compared to 0 for the boys.
