Delta vs Millard Football Rivalry
77 meetings · Marquee
Millard leads 44–30–3 — 77 meetings since 1950 on record. Millard County has two high schools — Millard in Fillmore on the east side, Delta on the west, about thirty-five miles apart — and the county is administratively split into east and west halves.
How it started
Millard County has two high schools — Millard in Fillmore on the east side, Delta on the west, about thirty-five miles apart — and the county is administratively split into east and west halves. That division is the rivalry. The first year they played is not documented; because the database starts in 1950 and both programs are older than that, the series is longer than the 77 games shown.
The games that made it
The record is the story here. Delta has won nine state championships — 1938, 1966, 1968, 1975, 1985, 1986, 1991, 1995 and 2001 — and still trails Millard in the series 30-44-3 over the games on record. Delta won the 2026 meeting 34-0. No individual game in this series has been written up anywhere we could reach.
Where it stands
Currently played as an August non-region game.
On the record
The series record above begins in 1950, which is as far back as the published game database reaches. These two were playing before that, so the figure is a floor rather than the whole series.
What we could not find
First year played. Any trophy. Every defining game. Whether the series has ever lapsed. The Millard County Chronicle Progress is the only realistic source and its archive is not web-indexed; Utah Digital Newspapers holds the Millard County Chronicle but blocked automated access.
