Danville’s Northeast Elementary Magnet School took the top spot in the elementary school division, and students at Schlarman Academy took second place. Armstrong-Potomac finished third in the high school division.
Jayce Townsend of Armstrong-Potomac had the top boys’ score during the tournament, with a score of 295.
Top finishers from the Illinois State Tournament qualified for the 2021 NASP Virtual National Tournament being held in late April and early May.
