The fourth-annual HighSchoolOT boys indoor track & field all-state team features 12 athletes making a second or third appearance on the team, including one that is now a three-time first-team selection.

The all-state team is based on either N.C. High School Athletic Association championship performance or the N.C. Independent Schools Athletic Association invitational, which functions as the unofficial championship.

In some events, there were ties across different classifications. In order to determine the teams, the tiebreaker was podium placement (a 1A champ got the spot over a second-place 4A athlete in the same event). If the athletes were still tied, the best regular-season time or mark was used or the number of times that mark was hit.

The top two times/marks are first team and the next-best two are second team.
