About the HHC

The Hoosier Heritage Conference is an association of eight high schools in East Central Indiana, which compete in athletics and academics. The HHC sponsors championships in 20 sports and three academic competitions.

The HHC was founded in 1993 with charter members Hamilton Southeastern, Greenfield-Central, Mt. Vernon, New Palestine, Pendleton Heights and Rushville. Athletic competition began with 16 sports in the 1993-94 school year.

Delta and Shelbyville joined the conference in 1996 to bring the membership to eight.

Hamilton Southeastern departed the conference in 1998.

In 1999, Yorktown joined the league to again bring membership to eight.

In 2013, New Castle joined the HHC and Rushville departed the league. New Castle competed for HHC titles in sports with individual meet championships in 2013, and in all sports in 2014.

The current membership of the HHC has won 27 IHSAA team state championships – 15 of which were won by active HHC members – and numerous individual state championships. Most recently, Yorktown (volleyball) and New Palestine (softball) won IHSAA team state titles in the 2016-17 season.
