Efficient, bruising Nicholls back with big-play juice
Lofton has shown the profile of a reliable Southland running back: he posted 434 rushing yards and 4 touchdowns on 80 carries in his first season at Nicholls, averaging 5.4 yards per carry, and earlier in his career added 613 rushing yards, 20 catches, and 2 scores in a productive sophomore season.[5][4] His differentiator is efficiency plus explosiveness—he’s not just a volume runner, he can create chunk gains, highlighted by a 66-yard touchdown run and a 104-yard game against SFA.[1]
