just thought everyone might have some interest in this...the Top 2 from the last 20 years 1983-2003 (1st place teams listed 1st, 2nd are 2nd):

83 Atchison County, Columbus

84 Beloit, Columbus

85 Beloit, Columbus

86 Columbus, Wellington

87 Columbus, Augusta

88 Concordia, Augusta

89 Columbus, Concordia

90 Scott City, Wellington

91 Wellington, Columbus

92 Columbus, Ulysses

93 Clearwater, Scott City

94 Scott City, Ulysses

95 Concordia, Paola

98 Abilene, Goodland

99 Abilene, Columbus

00 Goodland, SFT

01 Colby, Scott City

02 Clay Center, Goodland

03 Abilene, Goodland & Columbus (tie)

It should be noted that Beloit was a member of the NCKL when it won its State Titles...not sure on some of the other teams....Most consistent I'd have to say over the years has been Columbus with 11 first or second finishes in the last 20 years.
