CAMPBELLSPORT - It was a special Super Bowl Sunday for one local family.

Jackie and Matthew Oelke named their son after a Packers all-pro linebacker.

Clay Matthew Oelke had his baptism on Sunday at St. Matthew's Church in Campbellsport, hours before the Packers' 31-25 win over the Steelers in Super Bowl XLV.

They named their first son Canton - the name of the city which is the home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
