Harlan Eyeing New Opportunities in Missouri River Conference
Harlan is on the verge of a potential leap into the Missouri River Conference, alongside local rivals Lewis Central and Glenwood. This exciting shift could reshape high school athletics in our community—mark your calendars for June 25 to learn more!
The Missouri River Conference is reportedly preparing to invite Harlan, along with Lewis Central, Glenwood, and Denison-Schleswig, to join its ranks. This news, shared by Peter Burtnett of the Daily Nonpareil, aims to expand the league from its current eight schools to twelve, potentially leading to the formation of North and South divisions.
Currently, the Missouri River Conference includes teams from Council Bluffs and Sioux City, but recent changes in local athletic alignments have prompted these invitations. This comes amidst notable conference reshuffles across the region, including the Western Iowa Conference's earlier invitations to ten schools, including Red Oak and Shenandoah.
Harlan residents should keep an eye on an upcoming meeting on June 25th, where Hawkeye Ten Conference leaders will discuss future plans and possible changes. This development could significantly impact local high school athletics.
