The Big 7 League and Mid-East League Seek Merger Administration from the Big 7 and Mid-East Leagues have met and are communicating in regard to a potential merger of these historically successful high school conferences. School representatives seek the merger to improve scheduling logistics, increase academic and extracurricular opportunities, and further elevate the reputations these two tremendous leagues already possess. The Mid-East League, formed in 1948, currently consists of Riley County, Rock Creek, Rossville, Silver Lake, St. Marys, and Wabaunsee, with Rock Creek departing to join the NCKL at the end of the 2023-2024 school year. The Big 7, formed in 1926, currently consists of Hiawatha, Holton, Jefferson West, Nemaha Central, Perry-Lecompton, Riverside, Royal Valley, and Sabetha with Riverside leaving at the end of the 2023-2024 school year. The two leagues will continue to meet independently and collaboratively to work towards a potential merger with the possibility of competition to begin during the 2024-2025 school year.
