History

The conference formed in 1998, when Westville left the Porter County Conference to join with five independents: Argos, Michigan City Marquette, Oregon-Davis, South Central (Union Mills), and Westville. South Central left for the Porter County Conference after the 2002-03 school year, and were replaced for the 2004-05 season by Elkhart Christian. The conference shrank to four members when Marquette and River Forest left to co-found the Greater South Shore Athletic Conference after the 2006-07 school year. Unable to find suitable replacements, the remaining schools decided to disband the conference after the 2007-08 school year.
