OSU High School Math Contest Open to students in Oklahoma. Modeled after the William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition. http://www.math.okstate.edu/~hsc/
Extractions: Every fall since 1991, OSU's Math Department has sponsored a High School Math Contest bringing Oklahoma high school students to Stillwater for a day of serious mathematical problem solving. The contest has proved very popular with students and teachers alike, currently bringing over 600 students from high schools throughout the state to campus each year. For a few years we offered the contest in a second location, in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex in Texas. The contest consists of 8-10 challenging problems to be completed in two and one-half hours. The exam uses high school algebra and geometry, and other subjects such as trigonometry, number theory, or combinatorics may appear. The exam is designed to teach logic and problem solving skills and to encourage creativity. It is modelled after the William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition , sponsored by the Mathematical Association of America , which is offered annually to college students throughout the US and Canada.

University Of Maryland Math Competition Open to all high school students in Maryland and the District of Columbia, with past results, problems and solutions. http://www.math.umd.edu/highschool/mathcomp/
Extractions: Every autumn, the University of Maryland organizes a High School Mathematics Competition, open to high school students enrolled in Maryland or the District of Columbia. The Competition provides students stimulation, feedback and the opportunity for achievement. There are cash prizes and Edward Krahn Scholar opportunities, which vary from year to year. The competition consists of two examinations. Generally, over 2000 students take the Part I examination. Students who score well on the Part I exam are invited to participate in Part II of the Competition (a considerably more challenging exam). The exams require a sound knowledge of high school mathematics up to, but not including, calculus. Both parts require mathematical insight and ingenuity. The Competition began in 1979 under the leadership of Brit Kirwan, then chair of the Mathematics Department. The first Competition was organized by Professor Gertrude Ehrlich. Over the years, the Competition has been graced by many fine students. For recent years, we have more detailed records: Participating High Schools in Lists of Winners in Some previous Competition exams, with solutions
