Patoka Valley Conference

The Patoka Valley Conference was an athletic conference based in Southwest Indiana from 1959 to 1972. The conference contained schools from Daviess, Dubois, Pike, Spencer, and Warrick counties at some point in its existence. The conference actually had eleven members for the 1964-65 season, yet within less than a decade disbanded with four members remaining (and two of those schools would close within two years).[1]
