Gianna Valen
“Gianna is our lone senior this year for the Fallsburg/Tri-Valley wrestling team. Gianna joined the wrestling program last year and wrestled in the “Queen of the Mat” tournament in Copiague where she placed 4th overall. Gianna was not able to finish her junior season due to an injury. However, Gianna continued to show up to the practices and was a great teammate with the Varsity wrestlers. She was also a good mentor to the younger wrestlers who were in the modified program. She would speak with them about the moves that they were working on and making sure that they had proper placement when executing the move. Gianna also went with the team to cheer on her teammates during the Female Division Section 9 Tournament as well as the Male Section 9 Tournament. We all know that Gianna was excited to return to the mat for her senior season and although her season was cut short she will always be a part of the Fallsburg/Tri-Valley program. On behalf of the entire coaching staff from the Fallsburg/Tri-Valley team, we wanted to say “Thank you for the countless hours that you put into this program and all that you did for this program.”. We wish you nothing but the best in your future!”
Coach David Mellan
