Young did plenty to wow the Seahawk faithful during his first appearance in front of a Homecoming crowd at Wagner College Stadium. As part of a two-headed rushing tandem that produced more than 340 yards on the ground, Young carried the ball 19 times for 128 yards and two touchdowns in Wagner’s 45-28 victory over Iona. The rookie running back ‘s 11-yard touchdown jaunt gave the Seahawks a 14-7 first-quarter lead, which they would not relinquish. Young is averaging 6.8 yards per carry with 30 rushes for 205 yards over his first two games as a collegian.
