Corner Canyon's junior varsity squad kicked off the 2026 season by overwhelming Davis 51-14, a result that instantly positioned the Chargers among the state's elite.
Quarterback Jaxon Perhson orchestrated the offense with precision, delivering three touchdowns that each stretched beyond 60 yards and accumulating 306 total yards, including several rushing scores that underscored his dual-threat capability.
Adding another layer of dynamism, Diesel Dart proved to be a Swiss‑army knife player, scoring three touchdowns himself — one on the ground and two through the air — while also contributing 124 yards of offense and occasionally lining up in wildcat formations.
The Chargers' defense limited Davis to a single reception of 20 yards or more, while the special teams unit accounted for 30 points in the third quarter via a 75‑yard kickoff return that swung momentum decisively.
Davis managed a solitary highlight when Bode Sparrow, an ALL‑USA West Region second‑team selection, capped the scoring with a fourth‑quarter touchdown on an 11‑reception, 100‑yard effort, though teammate Jaxon Itaaeheau was sidelined by a hamstring issue.
Rising Rankings and Future Outlook
The victory lifted Corner Canyon to a No. 15 spot in the West Region Super 15 preseason rankings, propelling the team into the national conversation after three consecutive championships and a wave of recent graduations.
Beyond the scoreboard, the performance validated the coaching staff's ability to integrate new talent, with Perhson's emergence as a reliable field general and Dart's versatility offering a blueprint for future matchups.
Even the brother of Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart, Diesel Dart, drew attention for his all‑around impact, suggesting that the Chargers' offensive arsenal will remain potent throughout the season.
