Dixie-Monon Conference Explained

The Dixie-Monon Athletic Conference was an IHSAA-sanctioned conference in Southern Indiana. The conference was formed as a merger between the Dixie and Southern Monon conferences in 1965, and by its third year had grown to 12 members. However, soon after, consolidation started chipping away at the conference, and it ended in 1974, as only three schools were left.
