Ashwaubenon High School has hired Chase DeCleene as the new wrestling coach at Ashwaubenon High School. DeCleene has been an assistant coach for the Jaguars since 2017. Prior to teaching and coaching at Ashwaubenon, DeCleene was teaching at Merrill High School for one year and spent three years as an assistant at UWSP.
Activities Director/Associate Principal Nick Senger said, “I want to first congratulate Coach Jody VanLaanen and Coach Andy Kurowski on retiring from Jaguar wrestling. Their passionate presence will always be with us! We are excited for Chase to lead our program. He brings a ton of energy and has a great ability to build rapport with our student-athletes. Our goal will be to continue developing young men with high character, being competitors, and a strong work ethic. Chase knows we need to build on past success and recruit more students into the wrestling program. He is an accomplished Jaguar wrestler himself and wrestled at UWSP.”
DeCleene said about being named coach, “I am extremely excited to be given the opportunity! I want to fill the room, and build a championship program. It has been a dream of mine to be the head wrestling coach at Ashwaubenon High School. Ashwaubenon Wrestling has a tradition of excellence and success, I plan on continuing, and contributing to that legacy. I can’t wait to get started!”
