Carlton Haselrig (born January 22, 1966) is a former heavyweight wrestler and NFL player. Haselrig wrestled for University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown.

Wrestling

Haselrig won PIAA Pennsylvania state high school championship in 1984 despite not wrestling during the regular season due to Johnstown High's lack of a wrestling team.

While in college Haselrig would defeat future NCAA and Olympic champion Kurt Angle. In 2009, he was inducted into Pitt–Johnstown's Athletics Hall of Fame.
