Lone Peak secured the 6A girls soccer state championship with a 3-0 victory over Davis on Friday, Oct. 23, 2026, at Zions Bank Stadium in Herriman. The win concluded a remarkable championship run for the Knights, a program that has now captured four state titles over the last nine seasons.
The victory was fueled by scoring from underclassmen during the championship final. Sophomore Katherine Mason provided the first goal midway through the first half with a strike from at least 30 yards out. Freshman Kami McMurtrey added a second goal shortly after the second half kickoff following a deflection by the Davis goalkeeper. Lone Peak senior captain Sadie Stratton scored the final goal to complete the 3-0 win.
Lone Peak coach Shantel Jolley noted that the team's growth was a significant part of the season's success. After starting the season with one win and three losses, the Knights reeled off 17 consecutive wins to secure the title. Jolley stated that the team had to make several adjustments regarding formation and player roles to fill holes left by previous graduations.
The championship win stands in contrast to the team's early season struggles. Lone Peak senior Sadie Stratton commented that the team's success came from playing well together rather than just being an all-star team. The Knights' season was defined by the ability of younger players to step up and handle the pressure of the program's reputation.
