2025 Hall of Fame - Brian Wrobel
A former standout quarterback for the Warriors, Brian Wrobel is being inducted into the Winona State Athletic Hall of Fame, and we couldn’t be more proud!
During his time at Winona State, Wrobel led the Warriors through a golden era of success, guiding the team to multiple playoff appearances and conference championships. Known for his leadership and on-field excellence, he rewrote the record books and left an indelible mark on the program as one of its most iconic quarterbacks.
But his football story didn’t stop in Winona. After college, Wrobel signed with the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent and had a stint with the Green Bay Packers in 2006 — living out the dream of many aspiring athletes. He also made his mark overseas, playing for the Berlin Thunder in NFL Europa, where he threw for an impressive 293 yards and notched 2 total touchdowns.
Now, Wrobel’s achievements will be immortalized during WSU’s Homecoming Weekend, October 24–26, 2025. The official Hall of Fame Banquet will take place on Friday, October 24 at 5:00 PM — an evening that promises to be filled with Warrior pride, memories, and well-earned recognition.
👏 Join us in celebrating Brian’s legacy — a true Warrior on and off the field. Stay tuned to our page for more event details and coverage of this incredible honor!
