The fuel behind Neenah Rockets wrestling

NEENAH, Wis. (WFRV) – Over the last decade, Neenah has turned into a wrestling powerhouse in the state of Wisconsin. From 2017 onward, the Rockets have sent eight wrestlers to the state tournament, three of which have taken home the title.

A large part of Neenah’s transformation starts at the top. Ever since Kyle Kleuskens took over as just the fourth head coach in program history, he’s taken his experience, as a former state qualifier at Freedom and two-time team captain at UW-Oshkosh, and instilled passion back into Rockets wrestling.
