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:
“Perhaps our national ambition to standardize ourselves has behind it the notion that democracy means standardization. But standardization is the surest way to destroy the initiative, to benumb the creative impulse above all else essential to the vitality and growth of democratic ideals.”
—Ida M. Tarbell (1857–1944)
