Watch Harvard’s Justice Shelton-Mosley school Yale for three touchdowns
Yale was forcibly enrolled in an introductory course on the dynamic talents of Justice Shelton-Mosely in the 132nd edition of “The Game.’’ The freshman wide receiver caught two touchdown passes from Harvard quarterback Scott Hosch and ran for a third score in the Crimson’s 38-19 win on Saturday.
With Yale holding an early 7-0 lead, Harvard pulled even when Shelton-Mosley outran the defense and reeled in a deep pass from Hosch for a 53-yard touchdown.

After showing off his speed on his first touchdown, Shelton-Mosley put his elusiveness on display for the second. The 5-foot-10 wideout from Sacramento caught a pass over the middle from Hosch and then left several would-be tacklers in his wake as he ran the rest of the way for the 35-yard score.

“[Shelton-Mosley] makes routine plays great,’’ Hosch said, via The Crimson. “He just made me look good all year, and I know that I would not have had the success I had if not for him.’’
Shelton-Mosley racked up 119 yards and two touchdowns on five catches.
For his third touchdown of the afternoon, Shelton-Mosley showed off speed, elusiveness and his ability as a rusher while scoring on a sweep play from eight yards out.

That touchdown and the ensuing extra point pushed Harvard’s lead to 38-13 with 5:25 remaining in the fourth quarter and all but secured its share of the 2015 Ivy League title.
