Team Invitations
The team invitation list for the MSHSL Tournament is finalized once all regular season FRC competition events have completed.
Intermediate reports are posted each week as events are completed. These reports show progress toward MSHSL Tournament invitations. A Final Team Rankings Report, posted after all events are completed, indicates which teams are invited to the MSHSL Championship. Teams highlighted in green are invited.

Reading the Team Rankings report
The “State Rank” column shows each team’s position in the MSHSL qualification standings. Teams highlighted in green are either currently in position to qualify (for intermediate rankings) or have officially earned an invitation (for final rankings). An asterisk in the Event 2 column indicates that team has not yet completed a second event; their points are calculated using the single‑event formula defined in the Game Manual.
The report is organized by MSHSL section. The two top ranked teams in each of the eight sections automatically qualify. Remaining invitations are awarded to the highest‑ranked teams statewide who have not yet qualified through their section. If a team declines its invitation, the qualification list is recalculated as if that team were not eligible.
