Hall of Fame
In 1957, Chreitzberg was referred to by the campus newspaper, the Old Gold and Black, as the best pitcher Wofford baseball ever produced.
He struck out a single-game school record 19 batters against Wake Forest in 1895, a mark that still stands today. Chreitzberg was instrumental in the development of the early baseball squads at Wofford in addition to being a two-way player for the Terrier football team.
Chreitzberg returned to campus after graduation, taught physical education, and was around when the first campus gymnasium opened. He was a longtime member of the Wofford Board of Trustees (1914-48).
The Old Gold and Black had the following to say about Chreitzberg, “Few men have been so consistently identified with the life and affairs of Wofford College.”
