Note: Groger Rank is where the team ranks if it is listed in the latest Groger Ranks poll of the top standard (i.e. not just history) high school quiz bowl teams at grogerranks.com (rankings updated as of 3/6/26). Groger Ranks are only kept for Varsity teams. Note: If a team qualified at more than one tournament, normally only the first tournament they qualified at is listed in the results.
