Ashton Nelson ran 25 times for 119 yards in leading the Varsity Blues football team to a 19-0 shut out win over the Laurier Golden Hawks on Labour Day at Varsity Centre.
In his first OUA game, the Brampton, Ont., native accounted for half of Toronto's offensive yards in their first shut out win since 1995.
