Macomb High School is a public high school in Macomb, Illinois, which is close to Iowa and Missouri. It competes in Class AA, the "large school" division, of the Illinois High School Association's (IHSA) State Championship Series. For over 20 years Macomb was one of the top-tier small school programs in Illinois & in the nation.
Coached by IHSSBCA Hall of Fame member, Suellyn Rieckelman, between 1995-2022 the Bombers built themselves into a perennial dynasty. With their sights set on shaking their "small school" identity, the Bombers notably withdrew from local circuits and began traveling regularly to tournaments in Chicagoland & Missouri. They also began hosting the Macomb Rotary Tournament. Behind all-state caliber teams year-after-year, Macomb saw numerous podium finishes at NAQT, IHSA, & Masonic tournaments. Including back-to-back appearances in the IHSA State Championship in 2011 & 2012 despite having been promoted to Class AA at the end of 2011.
The program has held many impressive playoff streaks including winning their IHSA Regional 19-straight years between 2002-2021 across both classes, 13-straight Masonic Sectional titles (2010-2022), 9-straight NAQT national trophies (2012-2021).
Macomb has hosted their IHSA Sectional since 2010.
