Marquette University High School is a private, all-male, Jesuit high school in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Marquette competes in the Division C Wisconsin South East Regional. The school hosts both the Division C Marquette Invitational and Division B Marquette Regional. The team has improved significantly in each year of its existence and has expanded from having one team to five. They are unique amongst Science Olympiad teams for their outfits, wearing blue lab coats and bowties at competitions.
The program started in the 2015-2016 season, finding its foundations for the first two years before emerging as a competitive team. The Marquette Invitational began in the 2018, and it temporarily expanded in 2021 to accommodate Mini SO and Satellite SO teams in both Division B and C. Also in 2021, the team won its first Wisconsin state tournament, qualifying them for the 2021 National Tournament, where they took 14th place. In the 2022, the school began hosting the Division B Marquette Regional in coordination with the Division C Marquette Invitational. The team repeated as Wisconsin state champions with a dominant victory and advanced to the 2022 National Tournament, where they finished 4th, just 17 points from winning the national championship.
