Yesterday, Chad Hanson of the Greenwood-Granton high school football program was named Green Bay Packers High School Coach of the Week. After going winless last year, Greenwood/Granton improved to 3-1 last Friday after defeating an undefeated Athens team, 19-14, putting them in a tie for second place in the Cloverwood Conference. The Indians travel to Newman Catholic this Saturday for a matchup against the Fighting Cardinals whom they've split victories with the previous two seasons. Hanson began his coaching career at Eleva-Strum (Wis.) Middle School in 1998. After three years as a youth football coach, Hanson took an assistant coaching position at Eleva-Strum High School. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire in 2004, and was then offered his current position as head coach of Greenwood-Granton. The Packers will recognize one outstanding high school coach as their 'Coach of the Week' winner during the 20010 high school football season. Winners are awarded several items and privileges, including a $1,000 donation to the school's football program from the Green Bay Packers and the NFL, as well as recognition of the award on packers.com.
