Girls Basketball History & Champions
Girls basketball started out strong with a conference and tournament trophy for the 1975-76 school year. Putnam County showed to be the power house that year winning both trophies.
Even though only five players are needed for a team, schools struggled to get enough girls out for the sport. Co-op teams were formed to keep the program alive. However, many years there just were not enough teams for conference and tournament awards to be issued.
