Trueblood’s spark in the return  game provided the Seahawks with prime field position in key spots during their road victory  over Saint Francis (PA).  Trueblood returned two kickoffs for 89 yards (52, 37) and gained 44 yards on five punt returns.  The senior receiver brought the opening second-half kickoff back 37 yards to Saint Francis’ (PA) 48-yard line where Wagner’s offense began its game-tying drive.  His 11-yard fourth-quarter punt return put the ball on the Red Flash’s 33-yard line to set the stage for Matt Abbey’s game-winning 33-yard TD strike on the next play.  After Saint Francis (PA) took a 7-0 lead on the game’s first touchdown, Trueblood swung the field position battle in Wagner’s favor by returning the ensuing kickoff 52 yards into Red Flash territory.
