OMAHA, Nebraska (KETV) — An unselfish act leads to a must-see touchdown.
In Thursday night’s 56-0 win over Lincoln Northeast, Omaha Westside’s Caleb Benning fielded a pooch punt and broke into the clear.
Instead of scoring the touchdown himself, Benning — son of Husker great Damon Benning — handed the ball to his teammate, lineman Ryan Eckhardt, so the big fella could score.
Eckhardt’s reaction was priceless, as he was mobbed by teammates after the score.
Benning’s reward? A hug from his father on the sidelines.
