The '''2018 [[VHSL]] State Championship''' was held on 24 February 2018 at [[William and Mary]] in Williamsburg, Virginia, and was the 21st iteration of the VHSL Scholastic Bowl state tournament. 24 teams competed in six size classifications of four teams each.
Questions were provided by [[NAQT]] for the first time.
==Advancement==
The [[2018 VHSL Realignment]] reincorporated district play as well as a four-region plan, closer to the 1998-2013 playoff format. This change did away with the larger conferences and two-region plan that were used from 2014-2017. However, districts were allowed the ability to forego a district season and/or tournament in favor of an all-in Regional tournament, provided that all districts within a region agreed to forego district play. The new playoff format also introduced "Super Regions"-- AB and CD, which functioned as a sort of State Semi-final, but again, certain classes opted to forego Super Region tournaments altogether.

In Classes 1, 3, and 4, Super Regions were employed. Classes 2 and 5 opted instead to send their Regional Champions directly to state-- the first time in VHSL Scholastic Bowl history that Region runners-up did not advance to the next level of play. In Class 6, Regions 6C and 6D held a combined Super Region 6CD tournament, but 6A and 6B did not.

==Tournament Format==
Each match consisted of a round of fifteen tossups, ten bounceback "directed questions" for each team, and a concluding phase of fifteen more tossups. Tossups were scored in the normal quizbowl way. Directed questions were worth 10 points each and functioned similarly to a single-part bonus, but their reading was not correlated to answering tossups.

The four teams in each of the six classes competed against each other in a three-round round-robin; this was the fifth time the format was used, after its introduction in the [[2014 VHSL Realignment]].
