FAC SCHOOLS

How long does everyone think the FAC can continue with current schools? Will they add more, lose some, stay the same, or disband? I know as a Hillsboro fan/father we are the furthest west school and it does not appear any other schools near us would join making our drives further.

Western Brown has a Case to petition to the league.

Pretty certain they play just about all FAC schools as a OOC game this coming fall in football.

I would think schools like Unioto and Waverly be interested in joining just based on size of schools and locations

No school is gonna leave a league with stability like the svc for another league that’s just getting started.

Unioto isn’t leaving the SVC lol...but agree they and Waverly are a perfect fit.

I see no problem with current league. Kids at Jackson are losing the rivalry with Gallia Academy, Logan, Athens etc and Hillsboro, Chillicothe and the others provide great competition across the sports. Jackson isn’t dominating anything (other than a weak softball league)....some nice facilities at most every school. I teach 10 miles from Hillsboro and with some Hillsboro people....I don’t ever hear this add new teams or find a new league talk. I don’t think Hillsboro is real happy and McClain might like it elsewhere but the FAC is pretty solid, everyone a SE District team and the Championships across the sports are spread around pretty good.

Hillsboro to Jackson isn’t fun on a weeknight but it’s 1x a season. Jackson is happy and has the most travel by far with 4 pretty long trips.

I like this league...sitting here in parking lot waiting to enter Hillsboro High School to watch my 8-1 Ironmen battle against the 9-2 Indians in a huge league tilt....only thing that could be better would be no fan restrictions.

Bringing Waverly and Unioto (not happening) into the league continues the eastward drive for Hillsboro....western brown would make sense but I see Hillsboro, Greenfield, and Chillicothe looking elsewhere

That’s why Unioto wouldn’t consider the FAC for a while. It just seems like a league where half of the members want out isn’t going to stay together for long.

As of now, we play 5 of the 6 schools in non-league play, but I think until there is full stability and/or the SVC actually wants Unioto out, then we will be staying put.

At best, the FAC is a compromise for all member schools. They simply had no where else to go in terms of balanced competition and travel.

Not buying there is any issue. I on occasion hear Hillsboro isn’t a big fan but that’s it. As for Hillsboro having to travel east....they are as far as you can get to the west side of the SE district. If they truly don’t want to even go to Chillicothe there are numerous SBAAC schools or even SHAC schools to fill out their schedule. IMO if you play in the SE District the majority of your schedule should be in the SE district. SHAC all way smaller.

I truly have no idea why Hillsboro (if they even really do) would not like this league.
