Athletics

The Shoreham-Wading River Boys' Cross Country team claimed victory at the NYS Class B Championships 2007.

Established in the late 1990s the Shoreham-Wading River lacrosse program has built strong reputation as a dominant force in the sport. In the 2006–2007 season, both the boys' and girls' lacrosse teams emerged victorious at the NYS Class C Championship, a notable achievement that solidified their place in the annals of high school sports history. The boys' team continued their success by clinching State Championships in 2002, 2007, 2012 and 2020. Similarly, the girls' team displayed their exceptional skills by securing consecutive titles in 2008, 2009, and 2010.

In 2014, the Wildcats football team made significant strides by winning the inaugural Rutgers Cup, an accolade that positioned them as the premier public football team on Long Island. Their triumph extended to claiming their first Long Island championship in 2014, followed by successful title defenses in 2015 and 2016, culminating in back-to-back-to-back championships. However, the joy of victory was tempered by tragedy when Thomas Cutinella, a dedicated member of the varsity football team, died due to a head injury sustained during a game at John Glenn High School in Elwood on October 2, 2014. In his memory, Shoreham-Wading River High School honored Cutinella by dedicating its main athletic field as the Thomas Cutinella Memorial Field.
