The '''1987 Illinois High School Association (IHSA) State Championship Tournament''' was held in May, 1987 at [[Mahomet-Seymour|Mahomet-Seymour High School]]. It was the inaugural State Championship Tournament in Illinois, sponsored by the IHSA.

==Advancement==
The state was divided into 16 areas, termed in Illinois as ''Sectionals''. Each sectional hosted a tournament, the winner of which advanced to the State Tournament. The determination of these geographic boundaries was arbitrarily decided by the IHSA Office.

==Tournament Format==
Each round was comprised of 40 toss-ups and accompanying bonus questions. The sectional tournaments and State Championship Tournament were all single elimination. Teams were randomly assigned to positions in the bracket without regard for record or performance.

There was no third place match. The top two teams earned trophies and medals for team members, coaches, principals, and activities directors. The trophies were of the design smaller than that of the athletic trophies given out by the IHSA.

==Notes==
* The 656 points scored by Quincy in the Quarterfinals remains an all-time IHSA State Championship Tournament record, and will not likely ever be broken given that the 1987 and 1988 tournaments were the only tournaments to use a 40 question format.
* There would not be another team scoring 500 points in a match until [[2008 IHSA State Championship Tournament|2008]], when [[Wheaton North]] scored 506 points while beating Sandburg.
* This was the first of Quincy's three championships; all of which would be won under [[IHSSBCA]] Hall of Fame coach [[Beth Young]].
* As of 2008, only Quincy, Stillman Valley, and University High School would go on to win state championships in their own right. Salem would later win a Masonic State Championship.
