PLATTSMOUTH, Neb. —

It was a dream come true for Plattsmouth senior Dale Thornton.

Thornton, who has autism, suited up with the football team for the first time and scored a touchdown.

His teacher, Sara Baio, told KETV Thornton has two dreams: to play football and to be famous.

Another faculty member, Jana Shuey, captured the touchdown on camera.

Congrats, Dale!
