Portage Trail Conference
{{Use dmy dates|date=September 2021}}
The Portage Trail Conference or PTC was an association of five high schools and their associated middle/junior high schools located in the northeast region of the U.S. State of Ohio. In the conference's final season of competition, one member school was in Portage County, two were in Stark County, and one each was located in Summit and Trumbull counties. The conference officially began play in August 2005 with 16 member schools divided into two eight-school divisions based on enrollment, with the smaller schools in the County Division and the larger schools in the Metro Division. Games against teams in the opposite division did not count as conference games.{{cite news |first=Tom |last=Nader |title=PTC achieving goal of parity |work=Record-Courier |publisher=Record Publishing |date=28 June 2007}} Between 2013 and 2017, the conference experienced a number of membership changes, with four schools leaving and three schools joining. In 2020 the PTC underwent its largest changes since its inception as 10 schools left the conference. Two schools left the County Division to join different leagues while all eight Metro Division member schools left to form their own conference, the Metro Athletic Conference. Two smaller independent schools joined the five remaining PTC schools for the 2020–21 school year and the County Division name was dropped. Membership dropped to six schools in 2021 and as of the 2024–25 school year, the conference competed with a total of five schools.{{Cite web |last=Rosenblum |first=Jonah |date=5 February 2020 |title=Aquinas, Warren JFK to join Portage Trail Conference County Division |url=https://www.record-courier.com/story/sports/high-school/2020/02/05/aquinas-warren-jfk-to-join/1761245007/ |access-date=7 February 2020 |website=Record-Courier}} At the end of the 2024–25 school year, the league folded after two member schools, Mogadore and Rootstown, announced their intention of playing elsewhere in the fall of 2025.{{Cite web |title=Mogadore athletics to compete as independent for 2025-26 – Portage Sports |url=https://portagesports.com/mogadore-high-school-athletics-wildcats-2025-2026-independent-status-portage-sports/ |access-date=2025-05-29 |language=en-US}}

History
The PTC was formed as an expansion and reorganization of the original Portage County League or PCL, which had existed for most of the 20th century and by 2003 included eight high schools in Portage County and two in neighboring Summit County. Beginning in 2003, school leaders in the league began to explore the possibilities of expansion and realignment to better meet the needs of all the schools involved due to the vast differences in enrollments at member schools.{{cite news |first=Allen |last=Moff |title=PCL expansion may include Ravens |work=Record-Courier |publisher=Record Publishing |date=13 February 2003}}

It was decided to expand the league and divide it into two divisions based on enrollment figures. Initially Ravenna, Norton, Springfield, East Canton, and Coventry accepted invitations to join the new league beginning in 2005.{{cite news |last=Reed |first=Tom |date=28 May 2003 |title=League Expects Invitees to Join |url=https://infoweb.newsbank.com/apps/news/document-view?p=AWNB&docref=news/0FB57575AC580CDD&f=basic |url-access=subscription |work=Akron Beacon Journal}} Later in the year, following news that the Western Reserve Conference (which had just lost member Ravenna) would be losing at least two additional member schools (leaving the South Division with just four teams), Kent Roosevelt left the WRC and accepted an invitation to join the new league effective in 2005 after initially choosing to remain in the WRC.{{cite news |last=Hardesty |first=Tom |date=13 February 2003 |title=Riders staying in WRC |url=http://recordpub.com/sports/2003/02/13/riders-staying-in-wrc |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304092019/http://recordpub.com/sports/2003/02/13/riders-staying-in-wrc |archive-date=2016-03-04 |access-date=18 September 2013 |newspaper=Record-Courier}}{{cite web|title=Roosevelt to join Expanded Portage County League in 2005-06|url=http://www.kent.k12.oh.us/kcs/news/join_pcl2003_2004.php |year=2003 |publisher=Kent City Schools|access-date=19 March 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040812061649/http://www.kent.k12.oh.us/kcs/news/join_pcl2003_2004.php |archive-date=12 August 2004}}
The Metro Division contained the larger schools, which competed in Ohio's Divisions II, III, and IV for football, while the County Division contained the smaller schools, who competed in divisions IV, V, VI, and VII. Because they were based on enrollment, a school's membership in a given division could change if enrollment numbers changed. Games between teams of the same division counted in conference standings, while games against schools from the other division were treated as non-conference games. The first division change occurred in 2011 the PTC announced in January that due to a change in enrollment figures, Streetsboro would move to the Metro Division and Southeast would move to the County Division for the 2011–12 school year.{{cite news |author=Harris |first=Colin |date=25 January 2010 |title=Streetsboro, Southeast prepare for PTC division switch |url=http://www.recordpub.com/news/sports_article/4754993?page=0 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120731034615/http://www.recordpub.com/news/sports_article/4754993?page=0 |archive-date=2012-07-31 |access-date=7 July 2011 |work=Record-Courier |publisher=}}

Next, Valley Christian announced it was leaving after the 2019–20 school year to join the Eastern Ohio Athletic Conference, with Garfield announcing it was leaving after the 2020–21 school year to join the Mahoning Valley Athletic Conference (MVAC).

On February 5, 2020, it was announced that beginning with the 2020–21 school year St. Thomas Aquinas and John F. Kennedy Catholic School, often called Warren JFK, would join the conference, bringing the final total to six schools (with five competing in football).

Championships
The PTC has championships in 18 different sports, the most recent additions being the boys' and girls' bowling tournament in 2007 and regular-season competition in 2008. Most sports have champions for each division, with the exceptions of boys' tennis and girls' tennis, which are not divided into divisions because a limited number of schools offer the sport. In football, baseball, basketball, soccer, softball, and volleyball, the division champion is determined by the results of regular-season play. Other sports—cross country, golf, bowling, track and field, tennis, and wrestling—weigh the regular-season and season-ending conference tournaments equally as part of determining the season's overall champion.
