The 2021 MSHSAA State Championship was held on May 6-8, 2021. It was the first state championship held after the 2021 MSHSAA Realignment, with schools split into six enrollment-based classes instead of four. Classes 1 and 2 competed on Thursday, classes 3 and 4 played on Friday, and classes 5 and 6 played on Saturday.
Questions and format
As NAQT was not licensing its questions for in-person use (due to the ongoing pandemic), MSHSAA instead opted for questions from Academic Hallmarks. Though the questions were meant to be "pyramidal," in practice they were filled with obscure {biographical clue}s and other bad quizbowl features that frustrated many participants.
According to Clever coach and MSHSAA committee member Scott Walker, the subject distribution was "4/4/4/4/4. 4 math, 4 English, 4 History, 4 Science. The last 4 [were] a Miscellaneous catch-all of everything else."
Like in previous years, all questions were worth 10 points each with no powers or negs, and bonuses were played with bouncebacks.
Districts
Eight district tournaments in each of the six classes were held on April 17. District matchups are available on MSHSAA's website.
Sectionals
Sectionals were the first round of the state championship and took place on April 27. Due to a lack of available packets from Academic Hallmarks, Sectionals consisted of only one game between the two adjacent Districts winners. The winner of each sectional advanced to the state finals.
Class 1
- Hume def. Leopold (150-80)
- Lutheran def. St. Elizabeth (230-70)
- North Shelby def. Southwest (260-50)
- Tarkio def. St. Joseph Christian (170-110)
Class 2
Class 3
Class 4
Class 5
Class 6
State finals
Again, a lack of packets meant the state finals could not offer preliminary rounds. Instead, teams were placed directly into a single-elim playoff bracket, with seeding predetermined based on which sectional teams were from. This led to several lopsided championship matches, as the two best teams in a class often played each other in the semifinals.
Class 1
Semifinals:
- Lutheran 220, Hume 60
- North Shelby 130, Tarkio 60
Consolation:
- Hume 130, Tarkio 90
Championship game:
- North Shelby 250, Lutheran 200
Class 2
Semifinals:
- Greenwood 270, Summersville 100
- North Platte 300, Van-Far 120
Consolation:
- Van-Far 310, Summersville 110

- North Platte 250, Greenwood 170
Class 3
Semifinals:
- Fair Grove 440, Houston 170
- Palmyra 280, Cole Camp 200
Consolation:
- Houston 340, Cole Camp 130
Championship game:
- Fair Grove 340, Palmyra 230
Class 4
Semifinals:
- St. James 260, Cor Jesu Academy 230
- College Heights Christian 410, Savannah 230
Consolation:
- Savannah 270, Cor Jesu Academy 120
Championship game:
- College Heights Christian 360, St. James 190
Class 5
Class 6
Notes
- As a result of MSHSAA rules disqualifying teams with fewer than 4 players present, and the state championship taking place during a pandemic, many schools were unable to participate at Districts.
- Due to the nonexistent seeding at State, both Class 5 and Class 6 had semifinal matchups between two teams that were ranked top 5 in the state by community poll.
