Tippy Valley Leaving TRC

Tippecanoe Valley High School sent a letter asking for separation from the Three Rivers Conference by the 2024-25 school year, as first reported by Chuck Freeby of 46 Sports Friday morning.

Also taking place on Friday, Jimtown, John Glenn and Bremen have informed the Northern Indiana Conference of their intentions to leave. Knox and LaVille have also asked for separation from the Hoosier North Athletic Conference. The early speculation is that these moves are related and will result in these teams forming a new conference, but that has yet to be confirmed.

Tippecanoe Valley has been a member of the Three Rivers Conference since the school opened its doors in 1975.
