History[edit]

The KMAC was formed in November 2015, when seven schools from the Blue Division of the MOAC (Cardington, Centerburg, East Knox, Fredericktown, Highland, Mount Gilead, and Northmor) announced that they would withdraw from the MOAC to form a new league with Danville of the MBC.[2]

In March 2020, Highland announced they would return to the MOAC for the 2021-22 school year, except for football which would return to the MOAC in 2022.[3] In May 2020, the KMAC announced that Loudonville would become a football-only member of the league beginning in the 2022-23 school year.[4]

In March 2023, Loudonville's Board of Education approved joining the KMAC as a full-fledged member beginning with the 2024-25 school year.[5]
