The Westminster Athletics program finished the 2021–22 school year ranked no. 1 in the nation, according to MaxPreps.
The Wildcats had 2,380 points in the MaxPreps Cup, outscoring second-place La Salle Academy (Providence, Rhode Island) by more than 250 points.
During the 2021–22 school year, Westminster won 10 state championships—boys and girls cross country, boys and girls swimming and diving, boys golf, boys and girls tennis, boys and girls track and field, and girls soccer.
Westminster was ranked third in the nation last year and previously won the MaxPreps Cup following the 2012–13 school year.
The MaxPreps Cup is designed to recognize and rank the top high school athletic programs in the country, with points awarded for state championships, state runner-up finishes, and national rankings. Points are weighted based on the popularity of the sport, participation numbers, the size of the state, the size of schools in a playoff division, and the number of teams participating in that playoff division.
