The IHSA and Country Financial launched the IHSA Vintage Games Series in September to help celebrate the amazing tradition and history of high school athletics in the state of Illinois.
The first goal of the COUNTRY Financial Vintage Games Series was to crown the top IHSA Girls Volleyball State Championship matches from four different eras (80’s, 90’s, 00’s, 10’s).
