New conference alignment
It appears high school conferences will be changing slightly for sports other than football with the 22 through 24 school years. According to information released yesterday by the Arkansas Activities Association, the 7-4A Conference will feature Nashville, Arkadelphia, Ashdown, De Queen, Hope, along with Camden Fairview, Magnolia and Malvern.
The 7-2A Conference, for all sports other than football, is apparently set to include Dierks, Murfreesboro, Foreman, Acorn, Caddo HIlls, Horatio, and Spring Hill.
Mineral Springs is scheduled to be part of the 7-1A Conference, which will also include, Blevins, Kirby, Mount Ida and Nevada County. In addition to those teams, the conference softball field also features Oden.
There’s still a possibility of a change or two taking place in baseball and softball, as those sports have until December 1st to become official.
