History
The league began with the 1973-74 sports season. The charter members were Britton-Macon, Deerfield, and Madison in Lenawee Country, St. Thomas (Now Father Gabriel Richard) and Whitmore Lake in Washtenaw County, and Summerfield in Monroe County. Whiteford would leave the Michigan-Ohio Border Conference and Sand Creek would leave the Lenawee County Athletic Association (LCAA) to join the TCC beginning in the 1975-76 sports season, while St. Thomas would depart to be an independent at the conclusion of the season. Morenci would leave the LCAA and join the conference in 1981. In 2007, Clinton would also leave the LCAA to join the conference. This would give the TCC 9 member schools at one time.
Britton-Macon and Deerfield combined all sports starting with the 2009-10 sports season, although they already were combining some sports for several years. Their districts combined on July 1, 2011 into the Britton Deerfield School District.
In 2018, Whitmore Lake elected to leave the conference in favor of joining the Michigan Independent Athletic Conference for the 2019-2020 season. However, Erie Mason was invited to join the TCC in its place beginning in the 2020-21 athletic year.
In 2019, Clinton announced it would depart the conference and return to LCAA beginning in the 2020-21 athletic year. To take their place, Pittsford announced they would join the league as an associate member in football, wrestling, and bowling. This move came as a result of every other member of the Southern Central Athletic Association (SCAA) moving to 8-man football. Pittsford would remain in the SCAA for all other sports.
In 2020, Britton Deerfield announced that they would be dropping down to 8-man football, due a lack of numbers in the program. In 2021, they would form the Tri-River 8 Conference, an 8-man football only conference, along with 4 other schools.
After the conclusion of the 2021 football season, both Morenci and Pittsford announced they would be transitioning to 8-man football for the 2022 season, both due to a lack of numbers within their respective programs. Morenci will join the Tri-River 8 Conference and Pittsford will return to the SCAA's 8-man conference in 2022, remaining a TCC member in bowling only.
On June 27, 2022 the Madison board of education voted to leave the conference after the 2022-23 school year to join the Lenawee County Athletic Association. Concurrently, the league began discussions with Ohio's Toledo Area Athletic Conference (TAAC) about a possible merger. Following the announcement of Madison's departure, Lenawee Christian would apply for membership and would be accepted into the conference, beginning with the 2023-24 school year.
At the conclusion of the 2023 football regular season, Sand Creek announced their intention to join the Big "8" Conference as a football-only member beginning in 2024, remaining in the TCC for all other sports. Following this announcement, Erie Mason and Whiteford agreed to a football scheduling alliance with the Lenawee County Athletic Association beginning with the 2025 season, making 2024 the last season of TCC football.
In October 2024 it was announced that Erie Mason, Summerfield, and Whiteford would join the TAAC as football-only members starting in 2025, and that the scheduling alliance between Erie Mason, Whiteford, and the LCAA would be terminated.
