The College / Men's division is one continuous competition; each title is listed under the name the division carried that season. Women's: records begin 2002.

This record covers College / Men's, HS Boys and Women's — the divisions whose champions we can trace all the way back to 2001. Jr. High Boys, HS Girls and Old Timers are not included yet. Their championship history has not been traced, and we would rather leave a division out than publish a partial record of one. We are working to reconstruct as much of it as we can, and each will be added here once we can do it properly.

Full set 4

Multi-crown club 5

More than one division taken in the same season. A program qualifies for every tier it clears, so a triple crown is also a double crown.

Double crown 5

Two or more of the 3 in one season. A triple crown counts here too.

  • Santa Monica Missionaries2007 · College + HS Boys + Women's
  • Pomona Warriors2010 · HS Boys + Women's
  • Los Angeles Lions2021 · College + HS Boys
  • Los Angeles Lions2022 · College + HS Boys
  • Yorba Linda Copts2023 · Men's + Women's

Triple crown 1

All 3 divisions in one season.

  • Santa Monica Missionaries2007

Streaks 19

Consecutive titles in a single division. A program qualifies for every tier its streak clears, so a 4-peat also appears under 3-peat and back-to-back. Streaks are counted in seasons played, so the cancelled 2020 season does not break one.

Back-to-back 19

2 or more straight titles in the same division.
