• Soccer in Utah before Brazil? The state's fútbol roots run deep (fox13now.com) — Kanab gets a shout-out in new research tracing Utah’s soccer roots back to 1882, long before the sport boomed nationally. A historian found that kids in small towns like Kanab once played a game as popular as any other, competing for the prestigious Daynes Challenge Cup that still exists in adult soccer today. The story highlights how immigrant communities helped build this early soccer culture.
