Their score of 298 was the best score by a [[Wisconsin]] team or by a private school under the modern scoring system (2001-present), with the previous record being 479 points in both cases: [[Madison West High School]] in [[Cornell University 2019|2019]] and [[Pembroke Hill High School]] in [[Colorado State University 2018|2018]].|13=Marquette's national gold medal in [[Detector Building]] in 2021 marked the first time a [[Wisconsin]] team won an event at nationals since [[Madison West High School]] won [[Rocks and Minerals]] in [[University of Central Florida 2012|2012]].|14=Marquette won the 2022 [[Boyceville Invitational]], the 4th-largest [[Division C]] tournament in history, with a score of 123 points and a margin of victory of 93 points.

Their score of 230 places them amongst the great teams in history; that score would have won nationals in [[University of Wisconsin 2016|2016]] or [[Cornell University 2019|2019]], and makes them one of only 9 schools to average 10th place or better across all 23 events. {{SpoilerBoxBegin}} '''National record scores by school:''' | ||

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 team has a rivalry with Madison West High School, and frequently competes against Midwest powerhouses Adlai E. Stevenson High School and New Trier High School.
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. In 2021, the team won its first Wisconsin state tournament, qualifying for the 2021 National Tournament, where they took 14th place. In 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 and advanced to the 2022 National Tournament, where they placed 4th. In 2023, the team won their third consecutive state title and placed 11th at the 2023 National Tournament. In 2024, the team clinched a 4th straight state championship and qualified for the 2024 National Tournament.

- Marquette won its first state championship at the 2021 Wisconsin State Tournament, setting a new state record with 38 points (13 gold medals, 5 silvers, and 5 bronzes).
- Marquette's 14th place finish at the 2021 National Tournament was the best performance by a Wisconsin team since Menomonie High School's 12th place finish in 2011, and by a private high school since Pembroke Hill High School's 3rd place finish in 1996. Their score of 298 was the best score by a Wisconsin team or by a private school under the modern scoring system (2001-present), with the previous record being 479 points in both cases: Madison West High School in 2019 and Pembroke Hill High School in 2018.
- Marquette's national gold medal in Detector Building in 2021 marked the first time a Wisconsin team won an event at nationals since Madison West High School won Rocks and Minerals in 2012.
