Week 12 Stats: 2-2 FG (40, 41 yards), 2-2 PAT
Romero became the second first-year player to repeat as NEC/Atlantic Tomorrow’s Office Rookie of the Week this season, joining Duquesne’s Ryan Petras. The true freshman contributed eight points to Wagner’s count on Saturday as the Seahawks defeated visiting Stonehill by a 20-14 final for their fourth-straight win. That rally marks the program’s longest since winning six-in-a-row in a banner-raising 2012 campaign. In addition, with the win, Wagner remains in contention for a share of the 2025 NEC regular season title. Converting on the extra point on Jordan Johnson’s pick-6, the first score of the game, Romero pushed the Seahawks’ lead to 10-0 before the end of the opening quarter with a 40-yard field goal. Later in the game, he pushed the advantage to 13 with a 41-yarder eight seconds into the final period. The Pembroke Pines, FL has been on point as of late, going a perfect 20-for-20 in his last kick attempts with eight successful field goals and 12 PAT conversions. On the season, he ranks third in the FCS in field goal percentage (.923) while his 12 made field goals and 1.1 field goal per game average are both good for first in the NEC.
