1999 MSHSAA State Championship
The 1999 MSHSAA State Championship was held May 8, 1999 at Rock Bridge High School in Columbia.
Information on this page is reconstructed from limited available data and may not be completely accurate. Playoff brackets from the MSHSAA website are assumed to display the semifinal games as 1v4 and 3v2, in that order top-to-bottom. This might not be accurate, as the 2001 state program notes that only two schools had ever upset the #1 seed in bracket play throughout 1996-99, but if the MSHSAA website brackets consistently list teams as 1v4 and 3v2, there was a third #4 over #1 upset in 1998.

Known Individual Totals
Andy Wehrman, North Kansas City senior, answered 92 tossups correctly (18.4/game), second-most all time behind his brother Mike, who had 133 in 1997.
No other player answered more than 70 tossups correctly. The Class 1A record at the time was 55 tossups set in 1998, so no player in Class 1A answered that many tossups correctly.
Records and notes
- After the same four schools won the first three state championships, Priory became the fifth school to win its first state championship, in Class 3. Cuba was undefeated in the first three Class 3 championships, but did not win their district in 1999.
- Mound City, Richland, and North Kansas City extended their championship streaks to four years, which will remain tied for the third longest streak (along with Ladue from 2011-2014) through at least 2028. Richland later extended their streak to six before failing to reach the playoffs in 2002, then broke their own record with seven more championships from 2003-2009.
- Mound City went undefeated through the first four state championships. They took their first loss in the preliminary rounds the next year.
