Pennsylvania's independent schools came together for the first official state championships in 2007, when Academy of the New Church (ANC) captured the boys' title and the Academy of Notre Dame won the girls' title.
The tournament now includes all members of PAISAA, drawing from the InterAc League, the Friends Schools League, the Tri-County League, and the Mid-Atlantic Prep League, as well as some independents such as Kiski School.
Germantown Academy (3) and Notre Dame (2) combined to win the first five championships on the girls' side. The InterAc continued its dominance through 2013, when Episcopal claimed its first title. 2014 brought a changing of the guard however, as Shipley downed Germantown Academy 40-31 to win the Gators' first championship.
The first two rounds of the events are held at the home of the higher seeded team, while the semifinals and finals, which draw standing-room only crowds to see numerous NCAA Division I recruits on the floor, are typically staged at a neutral site.
