After placing second to Ridgeline in the military category, the Jetettes took first in both the dance and show categories to finish first overall and retain their 4A state crown.
Ridgeline ended up placing second overall, while Region 10 teams Desert Hills and Snow Canyon took third and fifth, respectively.
The event was staged at the UCCU Center on the Utah Valley University campus in Orem.
Dixie head coach Laurel Peterson called it an “indescribable” feeling for the Jetettes to be both region and state champions for the third consecutive year.
“It is such an incredible feeling,” Peterson told St. George News as the team’s bus was heading back home to St. George on Friday afternoon.

“All the teams did amazing,” she added. “We appreciate the parents and the Dixie crowd for all the support we’ve had this season. We are so thankful to work with such amazing girls.”
Peterson said there are 41 girls on this year’s Jetettes squad, 19 of whom have been part of all three state championship teams since 2020.
“We are so proud of the way they performed,” Peterson added.
A total of 15 teams in the 4A classification competed in Thursday’s semifinals, with the top nine scoring teams advancing to Friday morning’s finals.
Five of the nine finalist teams were from Southern Utah’s Region 10, namely Dixie, Desert Hills, Snow Canyon, Cedar and Crimson Cliffs.
