The Beaver Beavers (12-1) dominated the Kanab Cowboys (9-4) with a 43-22 victory in the 1A state championship game at Southern Utah University, securing back-to-back titles. Beaver set the tone early, with Davin Orton catching a 59-yard touchdown pass from Bodie Wheatley in the first quarter. The Beavers capitalized on turnovers, as Maverick Albrecht returned a fumble 66 yards for a touchdown just before halftime. Deegan Blackner played a key role, rushing for an 11-yard touchdown and returning a kickoff 91 yards for another score at the start of the third quarter. Kanab's effort included a 38-yard touchdown pass to Kash Kabonic from Brogen Virostko, but it wasn't enough to match Beaver's balanced attack and opportunistic defense.
