(1-24-25) That sigh of relief you hear is the administrators at Liberty-Benton after the Eagles landed a new athletic conference home with the Northern Lakes Conference.

Liberty-Benton was asked to find a new athletic conference several years ago by the Blanchard Valley Conference (BVC). They will compete with larger schools, including neighborhood rival Findlay. The Eagles will compete in the Cardinal Division (Bowling Green, Clay, Fremont Ross, Napoleon, Springfield, and Southview) starting in 2026-27. The addition of L-B gives the NLC 12 members.
