The Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA) in Cleveland, OH has a rich history of girls interscholastic basketball dating back to the early 1920s. Despite initial opposition and concerns for safety, the OHSAA eventually established a girls basketball tournament in 1976. Over the years, the tournament has evolved, with schools divided into different divisions based on population size. The championships have been held in Columbus, with the exception of one year in Akron. The tournament has seen a variety of champions, with only a few schools dominating their divisions for an extended period of time.

One of the standout teams in the tournament's history is the West Holmes High School team from 1984 to 1986, which experienced a dramatic turnaround under the guidance of head coach Jack Van Reeth. The OHSAA's commitment to girls interscholastic athletics has led to the growth and success of the tournament, providing opportunities for young female athletes to showcase their skills and compete at the highest level.
