The '''Minnesota High School Quizbowl League''' is one of the most popular quiz bowl competitions in Minnesota. It is currently run on questions supplied by [[NAQT]], derived from one of the A series they produce each year. The league is directed by [[R. Robert Hentzel]] and takes place over multiple nights at separate divisions, which compete at different sites. Each night, a team plays four rounds within its division. After all divisions have played 12 rounds, teams from the top 16 schools convene for a double-elimination playoff. Each school can only send one team to the championship tournament. The MNHSQB League championship tournament considered by many to be more prestigious than the official [[NAQT Minnesota State Championship]], as it is generally has a more challenging field and is partially televised.

For the 2020-21 competition, the MNHSQBL will be run online via Zoom and Buzzin.live. As the tournament's being online means that the geography of competing schools is not a concern, the divisions were renamed as Divisions I, II, and III. Due to a lack of teams, Division I was cancelled and all teams registered for it switched to Division II and Division III. Schools are listed in the division they played in for the 2019-20 season, unless they have registered for 2020-21, in which case their division status has been updated.

Regular season play uses tossups and bonuses from [[NAQT]]'s A-Series and lightning rounds from its Standard Television Series.  The playoffs use questions from a regular NAQT set, which are more difficult.

For many years of the pre-NAQT era, all events were held at [[Burnsville]], so that all schools had an opportunity to appear on public television.

Records suggest that it was once part of a quiz show on KSTP.  Very incomplete records of those years can be found [http://naqt.com/mqba/league/history.html here].

The Minnesota High School Quiz Bowl League is a quiz bowl league located in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. It is currently run on questions supplied by NAQT, derived from one of the A series they produce each year, as well as from an IS set for its playoff rounds. The league is directed by Erik Nelson and takes place over multiple nights at separate divisions, which compete at different sites. Each night, a team plays four rounds within its division. After all divisions have played 12 rounds, teams from the top 16 schools convene for a double-elimination playoff. Each school can only send one team to the championship tournament. The MNHSQB League championship tournament is considered by many to be more prestigious than the official NAQT Minnesota State Championship, as it is generally has a more challenging field.

Divisions

Format

The current format consists of two eight-minute halves of NAQT tossups and bonuses, with a pair of lightning rounds after the first half. The lightning round consists of groups of ten related questions worth ten points each. The team that is not in the lead gets the first choice of three subjects for their round, and has one minute to answer as many as they can. The other team then gets a 30 second bounce-back phase on questions the first team missed. After this, the process is repeated with the leading team choosing from the remaining two choices. 15-point powers are used in league play, but -5 interrupt penalties are not.

In previous years, MNHSQB games consisted of four "phases." The first phase consisted of twelve very short warm-up tossups. The second phase consisted of standard tossups with powers and bonuses. The first two phases were combined for timing purposes, and were 9 minutes long. The third phase was a lightning round, and the fourth was more tossups and bonuses, for 6 minutes.

Questions

Regular season play uses tossups and bonuses from NAQT's A-Series and lightning rounds from its Standard Television Series. The playoffs use questions from a regular NAQT set, which are more difficult. A sample packet of A-Series questions can be found here.

History

Much of the league's early history is currently unknown. For many years of the pre-NAQT era, all events were held at Burnsville, so that all schools had an opportunity to appear on public television. Records suggest that it was once part of a quiz show on KSTP. As of 2022, matches are no longer televised.

Patrick's Press questions were used in the years preceding NAQT's involvement, and Questions Unlimited provided questions before then, in the mid-eighties. Since the 2006-2007 season, play has been on NAQT questions.

Wayzata has the most titles in the NAQT era, with eight. Eden Prairie is second with five. Wayzata also holds the record for points in a game in the league's NAQT era, having scored 1,035 points against Edina during round 6 of the 2017-18 season.
