Tournament results
Richard Montgomery defeated Detroit Catholic Central in the final, 300-290. Richard Montgomery and Detroit Catholic Central defeated Detroit Country Day and Eleanor Roosevelt in the semifinals, respectively.
Originally, the tournament format announced for 2002 was an extremely ambitious system which disregarded traditional prelim pool round-robins and attempted to construct a similar strength-of-schedule for all teams without using pools. This was a response to the unusual tournament size which made division into prelim brackets difficult. In future years of the old PACE NSC tournament format prelim pools of more than 8 teams/7 games were used to address this issue when needed.
The tournament organizers ultimately decided that the proposed format was too complicated and divided teams into pools ranging from 6 to 7 teams in size. Since the 7-team pools required 7 rounds, including one bye per team, to complete, this meant that teams in the 6-team prelim pools played only 5 games across 7 rounds and had two byes. This is the situation that both the originally proposed format and the larger prelim brackets used in future years were intended to avoid.
The top 4 teams from each of the 6 prelim pools made the 24-team championship playoff, which consisted of four pools of six teams each. The winner of each playoff pool advanced to a single-elimination final four.
An all-in consolation playoff was held among teams outside the top 24 who returned on Sunday.
This tournament featured an exhibition Saturday night trash round in addition to the normal All-Star Game after the finals on Sunday.
