Orem receiving star Puka Nacua makes presence felt for Tigers defense

The Bobcats faced fourth-and-goal from the 13, and Bobcats quarterback looked to his left and fired toward go-to receiver Mason Falslev in the end zone.

He was right. Orem held on to defeat the Bobcats 28-12 in their Class 4A state semifinal to earn a trip to the state championship game, where the Tigers will face Mountain Crest.

Nacua made another big play on defense when he iced the game with an interception of Siddoway in the closing minutes.

Nacua made the two big plays on defense, but he’s much better known for his showing on offense.
