The 2020 All Time Greatest Moments and Achievements

As the Fauquier Falcons continued to load the 2019-20 wrestling season schedule with top Nationally ranked wrestling tournaments (Ironman, Beast of the East, Virginia Duals, and Mount Mat Madness) Coach Fisher and Company have been down this road over the past season and knew what was expected to prepare for 2020 post season and state title run.

With senior leadership coming from Sam Fisher and Gino Camarca, their efforts to make everyone accountable and meeting ending season goals (to win a State Championship) had the Falcons once again peaking at the end of the regular season.

Tuscarora High School, Leesburg, VA

Leesburg, VA: On February 22, Fauquier claimed the 2020 4A Wrestling State Championships Title.

An impressive late season State surge had nobody expecting the Falcons to fly away from Tuscarora HS. Saturday with the Championship Crown.

Heading into the State Championship Finals round Fauquier had the lead with 152.5 points but only a 3.5 point lead over second place Great Bridge.

Fisher: "It wasn’t until the finals did I even check the team scores. I felt that we were still able to win, but it would require us to control our own destiny."

The Falcons were led by (126) DJ Richards, (138) Gino Camarca, and (182) Sam Fisher who all won individual State Championships to seal it for team Fauquier.

Six District Champs in a 19-Point come from behind Championship to Remember
John Handley HS., Winchester, VA

On Saturday, Feb. 8th team Fauquier captured the 2020 District Championships in unthinkable fashion with a total of 219.5 team points.

The Falcons went 6 and 3 in the Championship Finals. While this is the first level post season tournament, I am also going to argue that this year the Northwestern District could be the toughest District in the state.

Anything short of six Fauquier Champions would have had a different team and bird taking home the first-place trophy this past Saturday night.
