The Cathedral wildcats competed in the Catholic League's Central Division.

One of their graduates was football player Reggie Cavender, who played at Michigan State, The Wildcats competed in football, basketball, baseball, ice hockey, track, golf and swimming.

In 1966, due to the obsolescence of the Cathedral building, the Brothers began investigating a new site in western Wayne County.

Student Mike Gruba described the school in its final yearbook: “Though only the test of time will tell Cathedral’s influence on its men, still one thing is sure: their conduct will live on, long after their books have been closed.

If, in the years to come, someone happens to exclaim, partly in jest, ‘Don’t tell me Cathedral’s still in business?’ –we’re sure to have a ready answer: It sure the Hell is!”
