History

Formation (1993-1997)

The Southeast Conference was formed in 1993 as a fifteen-member super-conference, taking most of its schools from three recently disbanded conferences. Five members came from the Big Nine (Kenosha Bradford, Kenosha Tremper, Racine Case, Racine Horlick and Racine Park), five from the Suburban Park (Kettle Moraine, Muskego, Nathan Hale, Oak Creek and West Allis Central) and four from the Braveland (Arrowhead, Mukwonago, Waukesha North and Waukesha South). The recently opened Waukesha West High School rounded out the original membership roster of the Southeast Conference.
