Mid-Eastern Conference
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cc/Indiana_%28MEC%29.png/250px-Indiana_%28MEC%29.png)
The Mid-Eastern Conference is an IHSAA-sanctioned conference in East Central Indiana. The conference formed in 1963 as schools from Delaware, Henry, and Randolph counties banded together with impending consolidations making their conference situations unstable. The conference has never been stable for long, varying between six and eight members between 1963 and 1977, and having as many as ten members since. While schools from Hancock, Madison and Wayne counties have participated, the conference has generally stayed within its original footprint. The league once again grew to ten members as Eastern Hancock and Shenandoah joined.[1]
