Dan Benson [right] has been a fixture in Wauwatosa and Wauwatosa West athletics for over 50 years. This was the 38th annual Dan Benson Invitational named after the longtime track coach at Wauwatosa West. Dan assisted in football and track at Wauwatosa High School and went to Wauwatosa West when it opened in 1961. Benson still attends track meets at West. Benson remembers in 1961 that all they had at West was a field to hold track meets. Now West has an artificial soccer/football field surrounded by an all weather track in school colors. |
