The eight regional winners would be seeded and play each other at Williams Arena to crown that year's champion.

The smallest school to ever win the state title was the 1960 Edgerton Flying Dutchmen with an enrollment, at that time, of 94 students.

Although much more well known, the 1954 Milan High School basketball team of Hoosiers fame, who won the one-class Indiana High School Boys Basketball Tournament, had an enrollment more than 50% larger than Edgerton at 161 students.

Edgerton would upset Mankato in the Region 2 tournament, then defeat Chisholm and Richfield, Minnesota, a suburb of the Twin Cities, in the first two games of the state tournament before upending perennial powerhouse Austin in the championship game, 72–61.

[11] In 2010, members of the Edgerton and Austin teams were welcomed back to Target Center for a 50th Anniversary celebration at the start of that year's State Basketball Tournament.
