The '''2015 [[MSHSAA]] State Championship''' was held on May 8-9, 2015. Classes 1 and 2 competed on Friday and Classes 3 and 4 played on Saturday.

Questions for Districts and State were provided by [[NAQT]] for the fifth year. The use of existing sets for some questions made three A sets (137A, 139A, 143A) and one IS set (146) unavailable for use during the regular season in Missouri.

==Districts==
Sixteen district tournaments in each of the four classes were held on April 18. District championship game matchups are posted [http://www.moquizbowl.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2945 here]

==Sectionals==
The Sectionals round was the first round of the state championship and took place on April 29. Sectionals consisted of best two-of-three matchups between the winners of two adjacent districts. The winner of each sectional advanced to the remaining rounds of the state championship.

===Class 1===

===Class 2===

===Class 3===

===Class 4===

==State Finals==
The Class 1 and 2 state finals were held May 8, and the Class 3 and 4 state finals were held May 9. As always, finals consisted of three preliminary rounds with a pre-determined schedule based on sectional, followed by a 4-team single-elimination bracket.
