The Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union has a list of all tournament results since 1920. 1993 was the last year they had 6 player champions.

I was incorrect about the start of 5 player. The first 5 player state tournament for girls was the spring of 1985.
So they had some 5 player teams, and some 6 player teams?? Sheez, that's weird!

Well, whatever works, I guess. Very interesting

Also, I note that a lot of young women will be too young for Granny ball, even if they played 6-player in hs. too bad!
