NJCAA National Championships
The Dixie Rotary Bowl twice played host to the NJCAA National Football Championship. The first contest was an unsanctioned championship contest between #1 Dixie State College and #3 Butler Community College in 1999. Butler pulled off an upset, defeating Dixie State College 49-35. Butler was crowned as the national NJCAA football champion.
In 2003, the Dixie Rotary Bowl organizing committee received sanctioning from the NJCAA as #1 Butler Community College and #2 Dixie State College of Utah met again for the national title - a contest Butler won 14-10.

Famous quotes containing the word national:
“In my public statements I have earnestly urged that there rested upon government many responsibilities which affect the moral and spiritual welfare of our people. The participation of women in elections has produced a keener realization of the importance of these questions and has contributed to higher national ideals. Moreover, it is through them that our national ideals are ingrained in our children.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
