History

The conference was formed in 2007 when four teams in the East Central Conference and six teams in the Valley 8 Conference formed the Eastern Valley Conference. In 2009 Omro asked the WIAA to move out of the Eastern Valley to the Flyway conference because of not being able to compete with the larger schools. The school moved out at the end of the 2009-2010 school year. In 2013 the WIAA unveiled plans for a new structure of the EVC.[3][4] The plan calls for the Departure of Berlin, Ripon & Winneconne to a yet to be named new conference, Xavier to the Bay. Denmark, Luxemburg-Casco, Marinette & Oconto Falls would leave the Bay to the EVC along with Olympian Member Wrightstown. Waupaca would move to the Bay for Football only. Xavier has voiced it will likely appeal the plan due to passing schools they currently play while traveling to the schools in this realigned conference. Effective after the end of the 2014-2015 School year the conference has been renamed to the Northeastern Conference (Wisconsin). dec[5][6]
