Rivalries
A&M Consolidated has two main rivals: College Station High School and Bryan High School. The rivalry with College Station High is due to the two schools being the only two public high schools that sponsor UIL athletics teams in the city of College Station (College View High does not offer UIL athletics). Bryan High has long been a rival of A&M Consolidated, as the two were, for many years, the only two high schools in the Twin Cities: Bryan and College Station. The rivalry between them is called the "Crosstown Showdown".
