Corner Canyon (UT) to hire Casey Sutera as head football coach

Utah’s No. 1 ranked high school football team of 2025, the Corner Canyon Chargers, has found who will be their next head football coach.

The football program’s official Instagram handle announced via social media that Brighton (UT) head coach Casey Sutera will be the team’s next lead man. The following is an excerpt from the announcement made on Instagram regarding Sutera as Corner Canyon’s next head football coach:

Wearing corner Canyon blue again and being on our fields again is amazing news! Welcoming back one of our very own as the new Head Coach of Corner Canyon Football is so exciting! CASEY SUTERA… welcome back!

There’s plenty of familiarity with this hiring for Corner Canyon as Sutera was the defensive coordinator for the Chargers before taking the head coaching job at Brighton. In four seasons at the helm, Sutera compiled an overall record of 35-14, reaching the state playoffs each campaign.

Sutera takes over for Eric Kjar, who after the Overtime Nationals Championship game against St. Frances Academy (Md.), accepted the collegiate head coaching position at Weber State. Kjar during his time coaching the Chargers won 112 games and led Corner Canyon to seven state titles.

Corner Canyon, which won the UHSAA Class 6A state championship in 2025, finished as the state’s No. 1 ranked team, according to the final Utah 2025 High School Football Massey Rankings.
