Dixie Athletic Conference Explained

The Dixie Athletic Conference was a short-lived IHSAA-sanctioned conference in Southern Indiana. The conference was formed in 1961[1] by smaller, far-flung schools. In 1965, left with only four schools,[2] it merged with the Southern Monon Conference to form the Dixie-Monon Conference.
