Elija Lofton seemingly broke through half of the opposing defense on Friday, the Miami football commit putting together quite the angry run for a touchdown. In the process, Lofton left a fan speechless and with a priceless reaction.
Lofton had three total touchdowns (two receiving, one rushing) for No. 2 Bishop Gorman (Las Vegas, Nevada) in a 56-28 win over No. 15 Centennial (Corona, California). It was his rushing touchdown that was most impressive.
The fourth-quarter touchdown run from Lofton may have been just one yard, but the four-star tight end had to break three tackles to get into the end zone. When he did, the camera panned to the crowd.
A student-fan in the stands had a priceless reaction of unbridled amazement at Lofton’s touchdown run. Wait for the reaction:
BEAST MODE: This man @ElijaLofton is an absolute monster!
Watch the @CanesFootball commit run through the entire #6 team in the nation.
