Returners (Grade):
None provided
Fairview did not provide a list of returners so we will go with what we know from the end of last year. Fairview is a top program in Tennessee and despite losing a ton to graduation including 4 State Placers and 2 other State Qualifiers … they still return a solid core that has post-season experience. William Henderson was 5th last year at 220 as a sophomore and (if) he returns should be amongst the favorites to claim an individual title in 2024. Fairview also could return 4 other state qualifiers in Dallas Day, Peyton Mitchell, Logan Baxley, and Michael Maguire. Maguire is the only senior in the group - meaning this squad could be young, but don’t expect them to take a step back in 2024. - SEWrestle
