Lewis and Clark Conference votes to add four teams in 2013

The Lewis and Clark Conference executive board voted to allow four schools to enter the conference beginning in the 2013-14 school year. The schools are Randolph, Laurel-Coleridge, Plainview and Creighton. Atkinson West Holt also requested admission by the request was voted down 0-12. The reason we did not support West Holt was due to distance.

The conference athletic directors will meet before the end of the year to make decisions on conference divisions and tournament formats. The following school are currently in the Lewis and Clark:
Allen
Bancroft-Rosalie
Bloomfield
Emerson-Hubbard
Hartington
Homer
Newcastle (sharing sports with Ponca starting this coming Fall)
Osmond
Ponca
Wakefield
Walthill
Wausa
Winnebago

Added school:

This will be a 19 team conference in 2013-14, 18 teams competing in sports.
