Falcon High School is a member of the Colorado Springs Metro League, Class 3A (varies by sport). It competes in men's football, cross country, golf, soccer, basketball, bowling, wrestling, track, baseball, women's softball, cross country, volleyball, basketball, and track. On occasion students in power lifting qualify for competitions, but this seldom occurs.

[edit] 2007 Falcon Football Season

The Falcon football team won the 3A South Metro Division with a perfect (10-0) regular season in 2007, and was the #1 seed in the state playoffs. After winning three straight playoffs games (the first in team history), they lost the championship game to #10 seed Berthoud High School 13-21, their first and only loss of the season.[2]
