Little Known Accomplishments of John Fadden

This morning I received this message from Ken Dinney announcing the accomplishments of my brother:

Yesterday I attended an internship seminar at Wayne
Central School. On our tour of the facility a
wrestling trophy, looking much like the Heisman Trophy
only much, much, larger, caught my eye. When I looked
at it, what name did I see on the Bernie Porray
Trophy? None other than John Fadden, 1993-94. I never
knew. "The Bernie" is just one award that John won.
Also on display is the Jeff Adriannsed Award with
John's name. Congratulations!

Since these little pieces of history shocked Ken Dinney I figure I need to shed light on other accomplishments of John Fadden.
