OGDEN — Matthew Roberts accounted for four touchdowns to lead Beaver to a 33-0 win over South Summit and the Class 2A state title Saturday at Weber State's Stewart Stadium.

Dillon Smith added a 1-yard TD run for Beaver in the third quarter.
The Beavers won their 10th state title in school history, but first since 1990.
