I've never been quite sure of the history that led to the Allen County Athletic Conference including schools from Adams County and Wells County.

The history involves a lot of consolidation of the Allen County schools. ACAC used to have schools like Huntertown and Monroeville. When those were consolidated the conference needed to look elsewhere for membership. It has changed quite a bit over the years.

Actual boys team scoring (News Sentinel had it wrong): South Adams 21, Garrett 73, Leo 81, Adams Central 86, Woodlan 148, Southern Wells 157, Bluffton 164.
