The Tournament of Champions will look different in 2021, but the streak of seventy-eight straight tournaments will remain alive with an adjusted schedule that will limit travel and eliminate overnight stays while still providing many of the traditions associated with the tournament.

The tournament will not follow the normal Thursday through Saturday format. Games will begin on Tuesday night at home sites. On Thursday night, Dodge City will host the Semifinal games while consolation games are held at home sites on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. On Saturday, the Championship and 3rd Place Games will be played in Dodge City. All games in Dodge City will be played at Dodge City High School.

The Dodge City Pep Band, Drill Team, and Cheerleaders will perform at all Dodge City games, Semifinal games, and during the Championship Game. The National Anthem will be performed by DCHS students before each Final Four game.

Tournament teams include: Dodge City, Bishop Carroll, Goddard Eisenhower, Hutchinson, Junction City, and Newton.

KSHSAA restrictions regarding fans will still be in place as the current restrictions remain through January 28. All Final Four games will be live streamed at www.dchssports.com.

Teams scheduled for the 2022 Tournament are: Dodge City, Goddard Eisenhower, Campus, Manhattan, Maize, Shawnee Heights, Wichita Heights, and Wichita East.
