Zersiedelung
Before the 2010-2011 year, Oxford High School moved from the FML, where it had been a member school since 1983, to the Oakland Activities Association. Reasons for the move included demographic and geographic considerations. Urban sprawl in Metro Detroit over the years had brought Oxford in from the rural–urban fringe and closer in-line with the greater Detroit area like much of the OAA, rather than the Flint area. As a result of the move, the sports rivalry with Lake Orion resumed after 27 years.
