Movement In The TRC
Over the past two months, the Three Rivers Conference (TRC) has been working to fill the void of Tippecanoe Valley for the 2023-24 school year, and North Miami for the 2024-25 school year as North Miami asked to be released from the TRC on May 1, 2023 with a two (2) year notice per the TRC constitutional by-laws.
On April 24, 2023, the TRC sent an official invitation to Lewis Cass to join the TRC for the 2023-24 school year. On April 25, 2023, the TRC received a letter from Lewis Cass accepting the invitation.
On May 24, 2023, the remaining TRC schools met to discuss the future of the Three Rivers Conference. During this meeting, the TRC voted to send an official letter of invitation to Northwestern High School. On May 25, 2023, Northwestern responded with a letter of acceptance to join the TRC.
During this time, the TRC discussed with North Miami and Northwestern about making the change for the 2024-25 school year. Everyone agreed that North Miami would be released from the conference at the end of the 2023-24 school year to pursue the HNAC, and that Northwestern would join the TRC in 2024-25.
The TRC is sad to see North Miami leave as they were a founding member of the TRC in 1972. North Miami has brought great competition to the TRC, and the TRC wishes North Miami nothing but the best in the HNAC.
By adding Lewis Cass and Northwestern to the TRC, the TRC has strengthened all of the conference athletics as both schools bring competitive athletic programs and great tradition. The TRC is excited for Lewis Cass to join this upcoming season, 2023-24, and Northwestern starting in 2024-25.
