(2-12-19) The Bradford Board of Education voted 4-0 to keep the school’s athletic affiliation with nine other current Cross County Conference members to form a new athletic conference, separate from the current CCC no later than June 30, 2021.
Nine other schools –
- Ansonia
- Arcanum
- Franklin Monroe
- National Trail
- Newton
- Mississinawa Valley
- Tri-County North
- Tri-Village
- Twin Valley South
In a Daily Advocate story Bradford Superintendent Joe Hurst said:
“There is group of 10 total schools, with the possibility of a few more on top of that, that are working to basically combine into a new league separate of the CCC. And in the best interest of our student-athletes, I believe, with enrollment, competitive balance and proximity, it makes a whole lot of sense for Bradford.”
Bradford is the first school board in the group of ten schools to pass a motion to join.
That leaves with schools outof the mix with the new proposed conference Covington, Miami East, Bethel and Fort Loramie (football only).
