Peter Hattrup (born March 31, 1964) is a retired American soccer player who played professionally in Major League Soccer and the USL A-League.

Hattrup was a four-year starter as a star player for the Seattle Preparatory School boys' soccer team. He graduated in 1982 and entered Seattle Pacific University. Hattrup was a scoring sensation for Seattle Pacific men's NCAA Division II soccer team. In 1985, he set the school record for goals scored in a single season with 26. He was more than a one-dimensional forward; his 16 assists that year ranks third on the school's list of single-season assists. That record lasted until Jason Dunn broke it in 1985. He is third on the school's career goals list, with 59 goals over three years, 1982, 1983 and 1985. He finished tied for fifth on the school's career assists list, with 31 over three years. He was selected a three-time All-Region (NSCAA), two-time All Conference (Northwest Collegiate Soccer Conference), and was selected as a two-time team MVP. Hattrup did not merely garner multiple individual honors, but was an integral part of two Division II championship teams, in 1983 and 1985. In the 1985 championship victory over FIU, Hattrup scored a goal and assisted another, earning MVP honors. He ended the 1985 tournament as the leading scorer with 5 goals and 1 assist.

Hattrup spent three years with F.C. Seattle, two while in college. In 1984, F.C. Seattle was born out of the collapse of the North American Soccer League. It was a collection of ex-NASL players, local amateurs and college players, such as Hattrup, who were looking for more than local rec league soccer. While F.C. Seattle played games against professional clubs, its independent nature allowed Hattrup to retain his amateur NCAA eligibility. After finishing his time with Seattle Pacific, Hattrup began a professional career which would take him through numerous leagues and almost a dozen teams. First, he became a full professional with F.C. Seattle, now renamed the Seattle Storm, for the 1986 Western Soccer Alliance season. In 1988, he scored 6 goals and added an assist, leading to his selection for the league's All Star team. He also won his first professional championship that year when Seattle defeated the San Jose Earthquakes 5-0 in Seattle's Memorial Stadium to take the WSA title. In 1989 the Storm finished out of playoff contention, and at the end of the season Hattrup moved to the Portland Timbers of the newly created American Professional Soccer League for the 1990 season.
