Milwaukee Kicks Off High School Football Season with Exciting Showdowns
Welcome to the buzz of Milwaukee, where the much-anticipated 2025 high school football season has officially kicked off, igniting excitement among fans, players, and coaches alike! With some thrilling non-conference matchups in play, this weekend proved to be a remarkable start for teams across the area.
Arrowhead Shows Their Strength Against Marquette
The highlight of the weekend undoubtedly centered on the showdown between Arrowhead and Marquette. The Warhawks claimed a convincing victory with a score of 53-22, marking their fifth consecutive win over the Hilltoppers to kick off the season. What a way to get things rolling!
Arrowhead, ranked fourth in the preseason poll, dazzled fans with a potent offensive surge, particularly in the second half. They scored three unanswered touchdowns, riding high on momentum as the game progressed. Notably, Brendan Foley made waves with a defensive touchdown after recovering a fumble, while Ethan Kirley secured a pick-six. Talk about an explosive performance!
Marquette’s Room for Recovery
Despite the setback, there’s hope for Marquette. Filled with potential and talent, the Hilltoppers have shown resilience in the past, bouncing back after similar early losses. Last season, they came back strong, ultimately winning the Greater Metro Conference despite their initial struggles. This time around, they aim to do the same, building on their strong roster which includes standout players like their quarterback, Tommy Novotny.
Challenges for Marquette
Adding to their difficulties this season, Marquette’s home field is currently unplayable due to significant flood damage. As they navigate these challenges, the team will be hitting the road for their games, but the spirit of competition remains strong and undeterred!
More Thrilling Action Across Wisconsin
It wasn’t just Arrowhead and Marquette lighting up the scoreboard. The excitement continued with Sussex Hamilton and Kimberly putting on a show. Sussex Hamilton edged out Kimberly with a final score of 42-21. The game was tied at 21-21 in the third quarter, but Sussex Hamilton found their rhythm and pulled ahead for the win, showcasing strong determination.
Meanwhile, in a nail-biter, Franklin narrowly defeated Catholic Memorial with a final score of 23-20. Rob Beglinger was among the stars, securing a crucial late touchdown that ultimately led to the Sabers’ third straight victory over CMH to kick off their season.
Neenah also made headlines with their narrow victory over Muskego, winning 14-13. This win was particularly sweet for Neenah, as Muskego had defeated them in both 2024 matchups. Just a missed 25-yard field goal prevented Muskego from adding to their score, leaving them wishing for just a bit more luck.

The kickoff games set the tone for the rest of the season with high expectations. Everyone is keeping an eye on emerging stars, like Arrowhead’s quarterback, Nolan Hanson, who is poised to make waves this season, alongside other notable players across the state.
