We’ve got an action-packed evening lined up to celebrate our past, present, and future of Hartford Wrestling!

The evening kicks off with our talented Hartford Middle School team battling Slinger in a true dual-format showdown — setting the tone for an electric night.

Then, the main event brings the intensity as 10 state-ranked Division 1 wrestlers hit the mat in a display of top-tier competition you won’t want to miss.

Join us as we honor our alumni, cheer on the next generation, and pack the gym for one unforgettable night of wrestling in Hartford!

In the fall of 1975, a young teacher and coach named Don Kreuser walked into Hartford Union High School with a passion for wrestling and a vision for building something special. Fifty years later, his impact is still felt in our school, our community, and across the state of Wisconsin.

For the next 32 years, 28 is head coach, his leadership helped produce:

🔸436 Dual-Meet Victories
🔸19 Conference Titles
🔸14 Regional Titles
🔸12 Sectional Titles
🔸128 state qualifiers
🔸60 state place winners
🔸15 individual state champions
🔸1990 WIAA State Team Title

Beyond the wins and accolades, Coach Kreuser was a builder of young men and community. He always credited Hartford’s success to the countless athletes and assistant coaches who poured their hearts into the program alongside him. His humility, leadership, and dedication extended far beyond Hartford as well, serving in nearly every capacity of the Wisconsin Wrestling Coaches Association and playing a pivotal role in establishing the beloved State Team Tournament.

Coach Kreuser was honored as Wisconsin Wrestling Man of the Year in 1990 and inducted into the George Martin Wrestling Hall of Fame in 1999, recognitions such as these speak to the respect he earned statewide.

50 years later since his arrival in Hartford, we pause to say thank you, Coach Kreuser. Thank you for your vision, your passion, and your decades of dedication to Hartford Wrestling, our athletes, and our community. Your legacy is etched into the fabric of HUHS and Wisconsin wrestling forever.
