The Farmington Falcons lost 41-21 at Livonia Churchill on Friday, Oct. 23, finishing the regular season 2-7 in coach Kason Dickerson’s first year leading the program.
Churchill led 20-7 at halftime, according to the MaxPreps game page. Neither team scored in the third quarter.
The Chargers added 21 points in the fourth quarter, while Farmington scored 14. The nonconference victory gave Churchill a 5-4 regular-season record.
Farmington’s official record reflected forfeitures imposed earlier in the season. Its first four games were forfeited after the district learned that two participating players did not meet residency requirements, The Detroit News reported.
Farmington Public Schools self-reported the matter to the Michigan High School Athletic Association. The ruling erased wins over Ann Arbor Huron and Walled Lake Northern. Farmington’s 29-7 victory over Livonia Stevenson on Sept. 25 was unaffected.
In an Oct. 8 statement reported by The Detroit News, district athletic director Allyson Robinson said staff had reviewed residency documents before the school year and later learned the information was inaccurate.
“While this outcome is disappointing for our student-athletes and coaches, our focus now is on supporting our football team,” Robinson said.
Dickerson was hired March 6 after serving as an assistant at Orchard Lake St. Mary’s, where he helped the program win Division 2 state championships in 2024 and 2025, according to The Detroit News.
A week before the Churchill loss, Farmington defeated crosstown rival North Farmington 29-6 on Oct. 16, according to the MaxPreps game page.
