2017 MSHSAA State Championship
The 2017 MSHSAA State Championship will be held on May 5-6, 2017. Classes 1 and 2 will compete on Friday and Classes 3 and 4 play on Saturday.
Questions for Districts and State are provided by NAQT for the seventh year. The use of existing sets for some questions made two A sets (157A and 165A) and one IS set (164) unavailable for use during the regular season in Missouri. 159A was also unavailable for standard invitationals, but was used for two conference tournaments that did not use NAQT's MSHSAA formatted conference set.
Districts
Sixteen district tournaments in each of the four classes were held on April 8. After being held in the afternoon and evening since 2009, the district tournaments returned to the previous morning/afternoon schedule, with three preliminary rounds from 9 AM to 12 PM, semifinals at 1 PM, and finals at 2 PM.
