While his first seven years at Station saw tons of overall success, a State Finals appearance eluded his teams until 2011, when they took 3rd place. In 2013, Price's Station team won its first IESA Class AA State Championship just five days after knocking off two-time defending MSNCT champion Kealing to win the first NAQT national title for any Illinois school. Over the next three years, scheduling conflicts between the MSNCT and IESA State prevented Station from attending the former. During this stretch, Station earned 3rd place finishes in 2015 and 2016 at the IESA Class AA state finals.
