History
Past State Champions
Note that North Dakota divides its teams into two "classes" - Class A (large schools) and Class B (small schools). In the event that North Dakota sends more than one team per division to the National Tournament, one team must be from Class A and one must be from Class B. Therefore, the teams listed as "runner-up" in this table did not necessarily receive 2nd place at the state tournament; they were the highest-placing team in their class and thus qualified for Nationals under the North Dakota state policy. If North Dakota was not awarded a second nationals spot in any given year, the "runner-up" listed in the table below for that year is the "true" overall 2nd place winner.

- 1 North Dakota declined their Division C Nationals bid in 2024.
Format
North Dakota runs an open regional system, where teams may register for any regional tournament in the state. North Dakota uses the high-score-wins scoring method, which was used at the National level prior to 2001, rather than the low-score-wins method that is typical of most of the nation. North Dakota separates teams at the state tournament into Class A for large schools and Class B for small schools.
