2022 NATIONAL PREP CHAMPIONS
2022 PENNSYLVANIA STATE PREP CHAMPIONS
The Wyoming Seminary wrestling program is among the nation's top high school athletic programs, often producing state and national champions and NCAA Division I student-athletes.
The Blue Knights have won seven national championships, dating as far back as 1937, 1947, 1948 and 1952. More recently, Sem earned the title in 2014, 2020 and 2022 at the National Prep Wrestling Championships.
Prior to winning the team championship at the national level, Sem earned the same prize at the state level, capturing first place at the 2022 Pennsylvania Independent Schools Wrestling Tournament.
Sem then convincingly won the national championship with Nic Bouzakis (132), Meyer Shapiro (145), Joe Sealey (152) and Jude Correa (182) each finishing first in their respective weight classes. Davis Motyka (106), Cooper Hilton (113) and Dom Federici (160) were runners-up. Luke Lilledahl (120), Kai Owen (138) and Jack Darrah (220) each finished third, while Carter Schubert (170), Wolfgang Frable (195) and DJ Moehring (285).
Following the season, Lilledahl and Sealey won gold medals at the U17 World Wrestling Championships in Rome, Italy.
Cornell Robinson is head coach of the Wyoming Seminary boys wrestling program, a position he'd taken prior to the start of the 2021-22 season. He is also head coach of the Team USA U17 squad, which, led by Lilledahl and Sealey, won the world title in 2022.

In his first season at Sem, Coach Robinson helped the Blue Knights win team state and national titles at the Pennsylvania Independent School Wrestling Tournament and the National Prep Wrestling Championships.
Coach Robinson brings a decorated wrestling background as a coach at the high school and international levels, including the Junior World Team in 2012 and Cadet Pan Am Team in 2013.
He served as Head Coach at Christian Brothers College High School, a preparatory school in St. Louis, Missouri, from 2014-2021. He also held head coaching duties at Timberland High School (2008-2014) and Parkway North High School (2004-2005).
