Nelson A Two-Way Star In Saturday's Spring Game

Editor, GoDucks.com

There were times, during Oregon’s Spring Game on Saturday, when sophomore Charles Nelson looked over to the sideline for a play call and got confused. Given that Nelson played both ways in his Team Pathway squad’s 35-29 win over Team Oregon, and was dubbed the game’s MVP by head coach Mark Helfrich, you hardly would have known.

Shifted to defense this spring after a standout freshman season on offense and special teams, Nelson did a bit of everything in the Spring Game. He caught five passes for 144 yards and two touchdowns, intercepted a pass and got in on three tackles for Team Pathway.
