Bettsville, New Riegel and Old Fort do not field football teams. St. Wendelin's football team competed in the MAL from 1986-2008, then in the NCC for 2009 and 2010. They are now a football independent, but since they are members of the MAL for every other sport, the MAL keeps track of their football record in the league standings.[1]
League history
1980s
- The MAL was created for the 1985-86 school year's basketball season with Bettsville, Hopewell-Loudon, New Riegel, Old Fort and Seneca East coming from the crumbling Seneca County League to combine with North Baltimore and St. Wendelin from the former Lakeshore Conference. Hopewell-Loudon and Seneca East were also full members of the Lakeshore Conference. Tiffin Calvert and St. Joseph agreed to join the league, but were not able to leave the Sandusky Bay Conference until the 1985-86 school year ended.
1990s
- Carey and Mohawk leave the North Central Conference and join the MAL for the 1990-91 school year.
2000s
- Lakota left the Suburban Lakes League at the end of the 2008-09 school year to join the MAL in all sports in time for the 2009 fall sports season.
- St. Wendelin competed in the Northwest Central Conference for football only in 2009 and 2010, but remained a member of the MAL for all other sports. They were eventually voted out of the NWCC for canceling 3 football games in 2010 and now compete as an independent in football.[2]
- On September 8th of 2009, the MAL voted against adding current SLL schools Elmwood and Gibsonburg after both submitted letters of interest for membership.
