Honoring a Legacy: Mayville High to Dedicate Alex Hilber Center This May

The Mayville School District will dedicate the Alex Hilber Center at the Mayville JR/SR High School on Friday, May 24th at 2:30 PM. The school's fitness center will be named in honor of Alex Hilber, a former coach who significantly influenced its athletic programs. The ceremony is set to take place outside the Fitness Center on the north end of the school, and attendees should arrive by 2:25 PM.

Alex Hilber coached football at Mayville from 1985 to 2002. His teams won 12 conference championships, had 9 undefeated regular seasons, and made 15 playoff appearances. This included two state runner-up finishes and a state championship in 1994. Before coaching at Mayville, Hilber had a successful tenure at Cassville, Wisconsin, where he won several conference championships and a state championship in 1982. His coaching record is among the highest in Wisconsin high school football history.

The naming of the fitness center as the Alex Hilber Center recognizes his efforts in developing athletic facilities at Mayville. When Hilber started, the school lacked proper strength training facilities. He converted his classroom into a weight room, which he expanded and improved over time to better serve the athletes.
