He not only scored his first touchdown but also proposed to his girlfriend.

Lindenmeyer was all smiles during a postgame news conference.

"She said yes. That was the best part," he said.

He said he had asked Coach Rhule if he could propose to her after the game.

The La Vista native said he first saw her while he was on the field, and he knew he needed to meet her.
