LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - Dalton Sealey and Beau Schwenka scored two touchdowns apiece as No. 2 Hastings St. Cecilia beat Norfolk Catholic to win the Class C1 state championship with a 26-18 victory.

Wade Dykeman ended Norfolk Catholic's final drive with an interception to seal the win Tuesday.

Sealey ran for 106 yards and Ben Konen had 93 to join Sealey as a 1,000-yard rusher for the season.

Sealey scored from 3 yards and Schwenka from 25 to give the Bluehawks a 26-10 lead early in the fourth quarter.

But Austin Ketter's 26-yard TD pass to Kory Schaefer and a 2-point conversion pulled the No. 3 Knights (12-1) within eight points with 3:39 left, and they got the ball back after forcing a 3 & out. Dykeman intercepted Ketter at the St. Cecilia 9, and the Bluehawks (13-0) ran out the clock.
