I've heard rumors in the past that Fremont wanted to join the SBC and was rejected. I really don't see why they would be rejected they are close to travel for most teams . Fremont can't compete in the TRAC they really need out , idk what you guy's think but I believe they would fit in the SBC really well

Everybody voted no except Tiffin.Even Sandusky voted no. I have always hoped they would be accepted. There would be some huge gates.

Just wait and they'll be able to swap with AW or Perrysburg That was the other league I was thinking of couldn't think of the name, Anthony Wayne would probably be the better fit for Trac. Perrysburg would probably be just like Fremont in the Trac

What should be done is Maumee and Fremont Ross should join the City League, giving the conference 8 teams. That would leave an opening in the Northern Lakes League, which could be filled by Clay. That would leave the NLL with 8 schools and the Three Rivers Athletic Conference with 6 schools. The TRAC is more than capable of getting along with 6 schools. They have the money and the resources to schedule 5 nonconference games.
But of course, Ross and Maumee won't join the CL because of the low gates they'd have for many of the games. It's nice to see that the administrators care more about money than what's good for the athletes.

Hasn't this horse been beaten and taken to the glue factory long enough? This will never happen. They wanted in the NOL for years also. They're the guy with no dignity left but he still keeps asking the same girl out. Bless their hearts!

I like going to these high school games when these Toledo teams come and play .. No lines at the bathrooms at halftime.. Places to park .. Always places to sit .. No lines at the concession stands .. Why have big crowds at these games .. Maybe they should give all us tax payers a break and just let us all in for FREE with a pop and a bag of good ole popcorn 🍿!!! Honestly Bellevue Tiffin Norwalk Fremont Sandusky Perkins and Clyde does have a nice ring to it !! But like that OLD song goes .. IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!!

Its hard to believe that Sandusky voted no for them to join. They already play them in every sport, that doesn’t sound true to me.

Being in a league with them is much different than playing them. Great non-conference games for TC and Sandusky in football. No one in the Lake wants to "marry" them into the conference. The Bay schools feel the same way when they realize at some point, depending on the future, they too could be stuck in the same division as them. Or playing a crossover.

Speaking of Ross, is this last year for Coach Long? What's the word?

So the Lake cries about the bay teams not wanting to play them but when a bigger school asks to join the Lake everyone turns their head and looks the other way? Interesting.

It is bullsh_t that schools in the same division won't play you!! Shorter travel for the schools and gain great points if you win over the team you don't think you can ever beat. It's a joke. I truly don't think letting Fremont in would make them the dominating team! But a DII team winning games over DIV teams doesn't help you make or prepare for playoffs. It doesn't make sense for Fremont to even want in the SBC. IMO

Same division or not most Bay schools just don’t have the same number of boys on their teams as the Lake. Look at Vermilion, 30 kids maybe? But we expect them to play Clyde, TC, Sandusky, Bellevue, Norwalk their first 5 weeks of the season and still have 30 kids left? Besides, adding Fremont would help remove that one extra long road trip and would surely help with ticket sales. The expectation that because you are in the same division you have to play within your division is not realistic if you have only 30 kids on your team while everyone else has 50+.

Clyde runs the league and gets up at the meetings tell everyone that. The River has no votes, ask the AD's how the last meeting went with all the yelling and cussing from Clyde. The Lake complains the Bay school won't play them, its the same thing Clyde is doing to Ross. I heard that Ross may go independent in the near future.

It's nice to see that the administrators care more about money than what's good for the athletes. Are you trolling? Maumee actually quit playing city league teams in football because they brought no fans. Several years ago, Woodward brought 24 fans to a game at Maumee. If football and basketball don't generate gate revenue, the money has to come out of the general fund. In times of limited budgets, that is tougher and tougher. Maumee now desperately wants to join the NBC. Is Woodmore or Elmwood a candidate for the SBC? Maumee would acually be a great fit size-wize for the SBC Lake Division, but the admin says "the parents here will never go for it." Look at these enrollment figures. These are boys and girls grades 9-12: Enrollment Figures 9-12 Whitmer 2140 Findlay 1546 Perrysburg 1514 AW 1449 Northview 1282 Springfield 1200 Southview 1056 -- Fremont 1190 Clay 1149 ---- Bowling Green 953 Maumee 788 ***726 smaller than largest NLL School ***165 smaller than next biggest NLL School ***252 bigger than biggest NBC school Napoleon 696 -- ***And those bigger NLL schools are STILL GROWING! NBC Schools Lake 536 Rossford 510 Otsego 517 Eastwood 481 Fostoria 474 Genoa 436 Elmwood 374 Woodmore 353

How about a SBC Black Swamp Division - seriously.
Fremont Clay BG Maumee Napoleon Team #6?
Two crossovers with the Lake. I don't see the Lake balking at that set up.

First and foremost, conferences are not ran by ADs. They have an important part in the discussions but they do not vote. Secondly, yeah - people are passionate about this. Some people (one person in this situation) aren't the calmest deliverers of passionate point's-of-view. That group of SBC schools is stronger than their differences of opinions on one topic (football crossovers).
