History
The Inter-Tri County League was formed in 2006, as a result of a merger between two former OHSAA conferences, the Inter-County League and the Tri-County League, with founding members such as McDonald, Mineral Ridge, Jackson-Milton, Western Reserve, Lowellville, Sebring, Columbiana, Lisbon, Leetonia, East Palestine, Wellsville, Southern Local, United Local, Springfield, South Range and others.
In 2015, the ITCL moved to a three-tier system compared to its two-tier system it used since its founding in 2006, to help reduce travel costs.
In 2016, despite efforts to save the league, member schools announced they would be disbanding the ITCL. The Blue Division members would go on to form the Mahoning Valley Athletic Conference, while members of both the Red and White Divisions went on to form the Eastern Ohio Athletic Conference. South Range became independent and later joined the Northeast 8, Crestview left for the Ohio Valley Athletic Conference and later joined the MVAC in 2020.
