Schools receive points for state championships, runner-up finishes and placement on national rankings. Also taken into account are the type of sport, size of the state, enrollment level of the school and the number of participating teams in that enrollment level.

The 2018-19 MaxPreps Cup also lists the Top 10 regional sports programs. Jesuit (Portland, Ore.) was the top school in the West, Albuquerque Academy (Albuquerque) was the top school in the Southwest, Carmel (Ind.) was the top school in the Midwest, Bishop England (Charleston, S.C.) is the top school in the South and La Salle Academy (Providence, R.I.) is the top school in the Northeast.
