CLAYTON, MO — Quarterback Levi Moore threw three touchdown passes and ran for three in the Washington University men’s football team’s win over North Park, Saturday at Francis Olympic Field.
The Bears broke the game open with three touchdowns in the second quarter. The two most important ones came in the final two minutes, when Moore ran for a 1-yard touchdown with 2:18 to go before halftime, then after a turnover, Moore threw a 46-yard touchdown pass to Makael Carter.
From that point on, WashU cruised for an easy victory in its final home game of the season.
