Northern California holds a separate competition from Southern California because of distance issues. It has a large amount of membership compared to other states. There are 7 regions in Northern California, each with various number of teams per division. All regions hold both B and C competitions simultaneously.

History
A small bit of history but certainly not all of it.
Division B
There have been quite a few close NorCal finals competitions over the years, some decided by just a point or 2. The over 30 years of Sci Oly history in NorCal have been dominated by 2 schools, Churchill and Arden. Together, these 2 schools account for most of the NorCal 1st place finishes. Interestingly, these 2 schools are both in Sacramento, both in the San Juan School District and are located just a few miles from each other. Other schools that have won the NorCal title are Elkhorn from Lodi and Carnegie MS in Sacramento. In recent years, the number of competing teams at the NorCal tournament grew from 16 in 2008 to 18 in 2009 to 24 in 2011. Marking a change in the results, schools from the Bay Area started placing in the majority of the top 5, and a few San Francisco Bay Area schools from Fremont (Hopkins, Mission Valley) and Cupertino (Kennedy, Miller) have finished in the top 3 at NorCal finals. This can be shown as ever since the 2014 tournament, 4 of the top 5 schools have been from the San Francisco Bay Area; however, from 2005 to 2017, the Sacramento region (Arden & Winston Churchill Middle Schools) won every state competition. In 2018, Kennedy won their first state title.
Division C
Mira Loma High School has dominated the Division C in recent years but has started to feel some heat from Bay Area schools like Mountain View High School, Mission San Jose High School, Palo Alto High School and Henry Gunn High School. In 2013, Palo Alto managed to defeat Mira Loma by one point.
Past State Champions
