The 2013 induction ceremony will take place on Saturday evening in the Hamilton Room at the James R. Connor. The inductees will also be honored at halftime of the Whitewater and UW-Platteville football game Saturday afternoon, with kickoff at 1:00.

In today’s story – a profile of Brad Arnett.

Arnett graduated in 1994 with a degree in physical education with an emphasis in corporate, community fitness and health. He lettered four years for the UW-W football team, and was a member of the Whitewater team that went undefeated in conference play, and through the regular season, in 1990 when the Warhawks earned a berth in the NCAA Division III playoffs. As a senior in 1993 Arnett earned All-Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Second Team honors. In 1993 he was named an All-American by the National Strength and Conditioning Association.

Arnett graduated from Fort Atkinson High School. After working in the strength and conditioning area of collegiate athletics for seven years, Arnett owns and operates NX Level Sports Performance Center in Waukesha, and developed a working relationship with a wide ranging clientele that includes Olympians and professional athletes.

former University of Wisconsin defensive end J.J. Watt has become a megastar in the NFL with the Houston Texans. Watt has trained for years at Arnett’s NX Level Sports Performance Center in Waukesha. Watt’s work ethic and desire to succeed have been there ever since trainer Brad Arnett met Watt when Watt was sophomore at Pewaukee High School.

Fox Sports Wisconsin published a story back on June 19, 2011 detailing the relationship with Watt and who he calls as his mentor Brad Arnett.
