No. Too many egos in Indiana to drop from the premier  (wpial) league to an inferior low life (i.e. ANY league other than the WPIAL). Ask them!!!!
Sigh.... I still hear this type of stuff from Johnstown people that want the Trojans back in the WPIAL.  Indiana would be a nice fit in the LHAC too.  Thing is, they're more entrenched in District 7 because their basketball and other sports (probably) are there.

I think CR will be the best bet. I do believe they will decide that this is their best option for athletics to be more competitive. There are some cons from other sports such as basketball and baseball recently.

How about separate conferences Bill?  For example:

Mid-to-Large League
Bellefonte
Central
Central Mountain
Clearfield
Dubois
Hollidaysburg
Huntingdon
Tyrone

*other possible candidates could include Juniata and Williamsport

Small-to-Mid League
Bald Eagle Area
Bellwood Antis
Juniata Valley
Moshannon Valley
Mount Union
Penns Valley
Philipsburg-Osceola
West Branch

* other possible candidates could include Saint Joseph's and Williamsburg

Instead of the ICC having the north and south, the could all be one. I'm with you though, Bill. I don't see that happening either.

ICC is already on league in football. There are no sections.

The league should remain unchanged for a while. It won't be until either McCort or BG shrink to the size of Carroll and the league votes them out.
