Tolbert contributed to Central Connecticut’s 38-20 win over Wagner in three different capacities. The rookie running back rushed for two touchdowns, caught a 20-yard pass, and made two tackles on special teams. Tolbert logged only four rushing attempts in the game, and scored on two of them. His six-yard touchdown burst capped an 83-yard drive and opened the game’s scoring 6:31 into the first quarter. Helping CCSU cash in on a short field following a fumble recovery, Tolbert ran 12 yards for a score that extended CCSU’s lead to 24-7 with 6:51 left in the third quarter.
