Elkhorn South's Teddy Prochazka faces off against Lincoln Southeast's Jake Appleget during the Class A state state quarterfinals last week at Seacrest Field.
The stat sheet had Teddy Prochazka down for one tackle Friday night.
Though the stat line doesn't jump off the page, that one stop did on the field for Elkhorn South.
Prochazka's sack against Kearney on fourth-and-9 late in the game clinched a spot in the Class A state championship game. The Storm won 10-3, and they'll get a shot at Omaha Westside on Friday night.
