2016 Fillmore Boys Soccer CIF Champs. 2016 CIF trophy. Remember the “good ol' days” when the entire town would gather downtown and celebrate our Fillmore High championship teams and homecomings? Good ol’ Fillmore High, over 100 years old, is still producing champions that all of Ventura County can be proud of. This Thursday evening March 24th, 2016, Fillmore High School will be hosting a parade and celebration in downtown Fillmore for their new 2016 California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) Boys Soccer Champions. Fillmore High does not have that many CIF Championship banners. There is an elite group of Fillmore High teams that have accomplished this honor. In fact, in the 105 year existence, they have produced 9 CIF Champions. FHS Baseball-4, FHS Boys Cross Country-1, FHS Girls Cross Country-1, FHS Basketball-1, and FHS Boys Soccer-2. Let’s all meet downtown this Thursday evening at 6:30pm for the parade and celebration. After the parade the team will gather near the Town Theater movie marquee for speeches from both coaches and players. Fillmore classic cars will be parked on Central Avenue between Sespe Avenue and Main Street along with food truck vendors. Our local restaurants, La Fondita and Central Station will be open. Let’s celebrate with Fillmore High, our community, and our Champions! |
