I don't know how different it actually was though.

I went to a pretty small HS (and we fielded rellatively few sports compared to today) so it's easier for me to recall who did what, even after all these years.

B'ball roster usually had 12 players, 2-3 footballers among them.
Football roster was somewhere in the 40s or 50s in number, maybe 4-5 of those played baseball.

Tennis / golf teams usually had 1-2 b'ball players each.

But for every one of those guys, there was a nearly equal number of football players who lived in the weight room year round, golfers around who played almost year round, b'ball players who were gym rats and in there about 48 weeks a year.
