Millersville

When it comes to the long, storied history of Millersville wrestling, Don Wagner is in elite company. He is one of only two Marauders to ever win both a national championship and a PSAC Championship.
 
As a heavyweight for the Marauders, Wagner reached the pinnacle of Division III wrestling during his sophomore season of 1980 when he won the national championship hosted in New London, Conn. That win earned him a spot at the NCAA Division I Championships where he won one match.

The following season in 1981, Millersville made the move to Division I. Wagner won a PSAC Championship and won the Division I East Regional to qualify for the NCAA Division I Championships where he won a match. He also took first place at the "Shorty" Hitchcock Memorial Classic and finished the season with a 32-4-1 record.
 
Wagner was the recipient of the Theodore H. Rupp Award for the team's most valuable wrestler in 1981.
 
He earned a bachelor's degree in industrial arts education. He and his wife, Jennifer, have been married for 31 years, and they have three sons: Brad, Marc and Matt. Wagner is retired from New York State Corrections and resides in Milrift, Pa. Wagner is also a member of the Delaware Valley High School Sports Hall of Fame.
