The Hoosier Crossroads Conference is a member conference of the Indiana High School Athletic Association. Teams first competed in the conference in the 2000–2001 school year. The HCC contains eight high schools in the Indianapolis Metropolitan Area. There are two schools in Hendricks County, one in Boone County, four in Hamilton County, and one in Marion County.

History

The conference started in 2000, as the West division of the Olympic Conference (Brownsburg, Hamilton Southeastern, Harrison, McCutcheon, and Noblesville) joined with two schools from the folding Rangeline Conference (Westfield and Zionsville) and one from the Mid-State Conference (Avon). Lafayette Jeff joined in 2004 from the North Central Conference, and Fishers joined upon reopening in 2006.

In December 2012, Indianapolis-area schools voted to sever ties with Tippecanoe County schools following the 2013–14 school year due to transportation costs, travel time constraints, differences in school size, and competitive balance. The Lafayette area schools joined the North Central Conference.

In March 2017, the conference schools met to decide on letting an eighth member into the conference, Franklin Central. On March 15, 2017, the HCC admitted Franklin Central Flashes into the conference, effective for the 2018–2019 school year.

Member schools

All schools are 6A in football, 3A in soccer, and 4A in all other class sports.
