Sam Koch, #4, did his hometown proud last night. He is shown here with 12 seconds left in the Superbowl game and his Ravens leading 34-29. Sam did just what he was supposed to do by taking care of the ball, killing as many of those 12 seconds as he could and then going out of bounds. Then with 4 seconds left, he got off a booming free punt from the 20 yard line and by the time the 49er's punt returner made a few moves but was taken down, the game was over. Sam did his part in a great Superbowl victory. He has gone a long way since making 100 punts every day after school when he was in Junior Hi. There were a lot of stories floating around Seward today about a young man who grew up in "Our Town Seward". The Lincoln Journal Star noted this morning that Seward's Amy Heidemann who is the lead singer of the band Karmin and appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine this fall is going to have to share some of the Hometown fame with Sam Koch.
