Wagner needed a near-perfect effort from its defense to overcome a 21-7 halftime deficit, and James and his teammates delivered. The Seahawks surrendered only 26 yards in the second-half of their 28-21 come-from-behind win over Georgetown, and James’ game-changing play was at the center of the stifling effort. With Wagner trailing 21-14 early in the fourth quarter, James stepped right in front of a Georgetown pass and returned the interception 24 yards for the game-tying score. The defensive back also made five tackles and logged a pass break-up.
