Catholic Central League
 | This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2022) |
The Catholic Central League (CCL) is a high school athletic conference in district H of the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association. Most league members are schools with Catholic affiliations. The league is based mostly in the eastern part of Massachusetts.
Member Schools
[edit]The Catholic Central League is composed of 9 member schools. The schools are split into two divisions, Large and Small. The Large encompasses the 7 larger enrollment schools, and the Small the 7 smaller enrollment schools. Marian High School, formerly a member of the Small, exited the CCL in 2018 upon its permanent closure. Bishop Feehan and Bishop Stang were added to the CCL after multiple schools in the Eastern Athletic Conference (EAC) either closed down or changed conference affiliation.
Austin Prep announced that they would be departing the Catholic Central League and the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association to join the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council following the conclusion of the 2021–22 academic year.[1]
