Champions
Note: from 1988 through 1990 the championship round was a 2-game series where the first team to three points won (2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie). If the two teams remained tied after 2 games a 20-minute mini-game was held to determine the winner. Mini-game results are in italics.
† Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NCAA did not hold any division III tournament during the 2020–21 season.
