Second-year running back Lukas Gavac rushed for 179 yards and four touchdowns in leading the University of Toronto Varsity Blues football team to a 70-0 win over the York Lions in the 45th annual Red & Blue Bowl at Varsity Centre.
The Mississauga, Ont., native had a career-high 18 carries, scoring touchdowns on nine, 34, 12 and 27-yard runs.
Gavac opened the scoring on U of T’s second drive of the game, notching the eventual game-winner with a nine-yard rush. He added his second of the game, and third of his career, less than four minutes later on a 34-yard run into the end zone.
Gavac now ranks sixth in the OUA with 230 rushing yards and second with four rushing touchdowns so far this season.Â
