Morgan High defeated Ogden High 48-7 in a region road game on Thursday, Oct. 8, 2026, according to a Standard-Examiner report. The victory for the Trojans moves them to an 8-1 record while the Tigers fall to 5-4.

Morgan quarterback Owen Gilson led a 27-0 run before halftime, throwing three touchdowns, including an 80-yard pass to Rhett Larsen, and scoring one touchdown on the ground. Morgan junior Bridger Neuenschwander entered the game in the third quarter and added a touchdown pass to Cooper Allen. The Trojans have now won eight consecutive games under coach Jared Barlow and hold a 6-0 record against Ogden since their series reignited in 2021.

Ogden's lone touchdown came in the third quarter via a 23-yard pass from Emmett Rector to Jack Thompson. Despite an early first-down connection from Rector to Thompson, the Tigers struggled to finish drives and faced two interceptions from Morgan's Bridger Schiffman.

Ogden coach Terry Larsen stated that his team did not come to play and noted that Morgan was more physical. Larsen, who took over after former head coach Erik Thompson stepped away in 2024 due to ALS, expressed disappointment regarding the team's inability to find answers in the end zone.

The Morgan Trojans are currently 4-0 in the 3A North division. Following this result, Morgan will travel to Logan to finish the regular season. Ogden is looking to finish the regular season with a winning record for the third consecutive year.

Ogden will host Ben Lomond and Ty Smith for their regular-season finale next week.
