Notes[]

  • Eligibility lasted from February 22, 1999 (first game of the 1999-A Teen Tournament) to May 5, 2000.
  • For first time since S2, all participants are 5-time champions.
  • Taped at the Atlanta Civic Center.
  • This is the last ToC that all finalists advanced as wildcard semifinalists.
  • The first ToC with four other tournament winners to participate, and also the last ToC with a Teen Tournament Winner.
  • This is the first time the ToC was held and the champion of that season won the ToC.
  • With this ToC as a starting point, there were cases where the ToC was skipped for one season.
