"textContent": "The inaugural UHSAA ESports state champs were crowned on Saturday at Weber State.\n\nCompeting in independent events in Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. and Rocket League, Farmington (6A), Pleasant Grove (5A), Provo (4A) and American Leadership (3A-1A) won their respective state championships.\n\nTeam points were awarded in all three games based on finish (similar to track, swimming, etc.), with cumulative points acquired being used for the team titles.\n\nThe UHSAA hopes to expand beyond those three ESports in 2027.\n\nSchools competed in a regular season over the past two months, and then were seeded into single-elimination brackets. First round, quarterfinal and semifinal rounds were played online, with the championship and third-place matches being played in person at Weber State.\n\nIn 6A, Farmington narrowly edged runner-up Bingham by 10 points. The teams went head-to-head in the Rocket League final, with top-seed Bingham winning comfortably 4-0. It won all four matches in the playoffs 4-0.\n\nIn 5A, Pleasant Grove had the title locked up after the semifinals, as it finished with 200 team points. Brighton secured a runner-up finish with 140 points, as its third-place finish in Rocket League bumped it out of a possible three-way tie for second with Clearfield and Hillcrest.\n\nIn 4A, Provo won with 220 points, followed by Sky View with 190 points. The Bulldogs finished runner-up in Mario Kart and Rocket League, and third in Super Smash.\n\nIn the first competition of the day, which spanned 10 hours at Weber State, American Leadership won two of three events to win the team title with 280 points. Canyon View finished third with 200 points.\n\nRoughly 80 teams across the state participated in the inaugural season of ESports. That number figures to grow with the likely addition of new games in 2027.\n\n### Class 6A\n\n**Team Scores**\n\n 1. Farmington, 210\n 2. Bingham, 200\n 3. Cedar Valley, 190\n 4. Westlake, 180\n 5.
