[edit] League history

[edit] 1970s

• For the 1972-73 school year, Eastwood, Elmwood, and Genoa leave the Northern Lakes League to form the SLL with Gibsonburg, Lakota, and Oak Harbor from the Sandusky Bay Conference.
• Otsego and Woodmore are admitted as members in the 70s.

[edit] 1980s

• Northwood joined the league for the 1985-86 school year after the Lakeshore Conference had folded.
• For the 1986-87 school year, Oak Harbor leaves to rejoin the Sandusky Bay Conference.

[edit] 1990s

• Lake becomes the ninth league member in 1996, leaving the NLL in similar fashion to its SLL predecessors.

[edit] 2000s

• Northwood leaves the league for the TAAC in 2001 after Rossford declines to join the SLL as its tenth member.
• Realignment issues are stirred up again in 2008 when Lakota decides to leave for the Midland Athletic League in 2009, opening the door for another potential member. Rossford was considered as the prime choice for replacement, but the league could not get a 6-out-of-7 vote to accept them. For the 2009-10 school year, the SLL will be a seven team league.
