Since 1996 (Salems first State Title) Salem has gotten to the Final Four 19 times. I don't have the stats to take it back any further but if you take it all the way back to 1985 it might be even more impressive.

This will be Salem’s nineteenth appearance in the state semifinals, or Final Four, overall. Salem’s current record in state semis is 12-6 (6-2 at home, 2-0 at neutral sites, 4-4 in true road games). From 2013 to 2016, when there were only two regions per classification, the regional finals in what were then called 4A, 5A, and 6A were also the state semifinals. During those years, 1A, 2A, and 3A cross-bracketed between regions in the state semis, so those classifications had no regional champions.

Seasons in which Salem has made the state semifinals, by decade:
1986, 1989
1990, 1991, 1992, 1996, 1998, 1999
2000, 2004, 2005, 2007
2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019

From 2013 to 2016, when there were only two regions per classification, the regional finals in what were then called 4A, 5A, and 6A were also the state semifinals. During those years, the three lower classifications cross-bracketed between regions in the state semis, so those classifications had no regional champions.

Seasons in which Salem has made the state semifinals, by decade:
1986, 1989
1990, 1991, 1992, 1996, 1998, 1999
2000, 2004, 2005, 2007
2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019

I was a little off. Was counting seasons where Salem Played 12 games when I should have counted seasons where they played 13 or more games. My bad.
However 19 since 1986 still great achievement

Yep, no argument. As fans, we have been blessed, probably more than we deserve LOL.

In my opinion 1998 and 2015 two best of an outstanding group.
