Doscher produced more than 300 yards of total offense for the third time in four weeks to power Wagner past Central Connecticut State.  The freshman quarterback was responsible for all five of  Wagner’s touchdowns in a 32-27 comeback victory that extended the Seahawks’ win streak to four and lifted them into a first-place tie in the NEC standings.  After the Blue Devils scored twice to claim a 27-20 lead in the opening minutes of the fourth quarter, Doscher answered back by engineering a pair of touchdown drives within the final 10:15.  First, he capped a six-play, 53-yard drive by rushing into the end zone from two yards out to cut the deficit to one.  The rookie signal caller fumbled the snap on the ensuing extra point, but would do his best to make up for it.  With 1:35 remaining on the clock and the ball at Wagner’s 37-yard line, Doscher rushed for 24 yards and passed for another 39 in guiding his Seahawks to the game-winning score. Doscher, who finished 11-of-16 passing for 174 yards and three TDs, completed the comeback with a 15-yard scoring strike to Lon Woods.  He added another 130 yards and two scores on 15 rushes.
