Utah high school football will look differently this year. The Utah High School Activities Association has approved a two-year realignment

The biggest change is in 6A where two-time reigning 5A champ Lehi moves into Region 3. The Pioneers, who will bring a 19-game win streak into 2023, finished last year ranked No. 93 in the High School Football America 300 national rankings, powered by NFL Play Football.

Region 3 is very strong with three other schools that finished last year in our Top 300 — reigning 6A champ Skyridge (No. 69), American Fork (No. 223) and Lone Peak (No. 236).

Corner Canyon, No. 86 in the national rankings, moves from Region 3 to Region 2, which includes Bingham. The Miners finished No. 216 in the nation last year.
