Greatest Memory:

Winning the 1984 Inter County Championship, Wyomissing Areas 1st. My father played for West Reading Cowboys and when their team was inducted into Berks County Hall of Fame as a legends team that consisted of some of the fathers whose sons were teammates of mine from Wyo I started realizing success started so many years ago.

 

Best Story:

John Faye nicknaming me Chicken my sophomore year. Teachers, coaches and friends called me that and to this day I wonder if some of them actually knew my real name.

 

Biggest Thing You Took From Being Associated With The Program:

I’ve coached over 30 teams including soccer, baseball, football and rugby. I truly believe being involved at Wyo laid a solid foundation for that part of my life and other volunteer work I am still involved with.

Family:

son- Jake

 

What would you like to see from the WFA:

Anything that helps the community. I want to be active with anything involving Wyo tradition. Maybe involve alumni in 4th of July parade and other fund raisers.

Published on April 25, 2013

The Reading Fightin Phils will be hosting an exciting night on May 22, 2013 to recognize the Wyomissing Area High School Football Team and Men’s Golf Team, both of which won PIAA State Championships during the 2012-2013 school year.

The Fightin Phils have expressed interest in getting as many Spartan fans and students out to the game, so we encourage you to come out on May 22 to support the team as they are recognized on the field.

Then and Now: Alumni Profile on Matthew Hartman

Published on April 22, 2013

Years Played or Associated with Wyomissing Area Football Program:

4 years ’02-’05

 

Positions Played:

RB, DB

 

Greatest Memory:

I can’t pinpoint a single memory, but relish many made over the 4 years with the organization. Some of my favorite games and accomplishments include the Holy Name game in 2003, districts in 2003, and winning the Eastern Conference championship in 2005.

 

Best Story:

Going into the 2005 season, as captains, Doug, Andrew, and myself decided we needed to spice things up to build momentum to start the season off right. We installed DJ lights in the locker room and put together several dance mixes. It only took days for our locker room to to transform into a rave…and for the coaches to walk in on a raging dance party. Needless to say, this is something we were never able to live down for the remainder of the year.

 

Biggest Thing You Took From Being Associated With The Program:

The program has taught me to be a leader and has helped me grow exponentially as a person. I’m thankful for the relationships I’ve made with both the players and coaches, of which many are still very strong today.

 

What You Would Like to See From the Alumni Association:

Continued growth and camaraderie amongst all teams.
