Dude, chill out. No one can give you a real answer. The state titles will help a lot. I'm a Princeton '09. Honestly, whatever happens you will be fine. Even if you do not get in, you will probably get a higher GPA at the school you do go to, and that will balance out the difference. Don't worry. The whole college name thing is overrated.
