Staten Island, NY – The annual Wagner College Green & White Game offered a little bit of everything for the players and coaches as well as the courageous fans who endured a 30-minute weather delay at Wagner College Stadium.

The nearly three-hour scrimmage that began at 11:00 am featured stretches of steady rain, some of the downpour variety. Most of the contest itself centered on the battle between two players competing for the backup quarterback position behind junior Nick Doscher (Staten Island, NY/ Moore Catholic). The competition for the backup quarterback spot is between redshirt freshman Matt Misley (Park Ridge, NJ/ Park Ridge) and junior Justin Sciarra (La Canada, CA/ St. Francis Prep). Head coach Walt Hameline discussed the play of his young quarterbacks.

Both quarterbacks were particularly effective early on in the scrimmage. Misley connected on his first five passing attempts early while Sciarra threw a dart over the middle to senior wide receiver David Crawford (Carrollton, TX/ Hebron) for a 38-yard gain which set up a four-yard touchdown run by junior running back Dominique Williams (Bridgton, NJ/ Milford Academy). For Williams, it was an important step in his return from knee surgery which forced him to sit last season after a stellar freshman campaign in 2009. Williams talked about how it feels to be back following the scrimmage.

Another bright spot for the Seahawks was the fine kicking job turned in by junior David Lopez (Plantation, FL/ American Heritage). A Second-Team All-Northeast Conference (NEC) selection last season, Lopez was also named to the 2011 Preseason All-NEC Team. Lopez lived up to his accolades today by going a perfect 3-for-3, nailing kicks from 38, 37 and 33 yards.

One of the day's highlights was an electrifying 71-yard punt return for a touchdown by speedy wide receiver Wandy Saintilien (Miami, Fl/ ASA Institute). The shifty 5-7, 150-pounder juked several would-be tacklers in the middle of the field before out-running everyone to the end zone.

Defensively, senior linebacker Nick Suppes (Dumont, NJ/ Dumont) made a host of plays early in the contest while senior defensive tackle Sal Gigante (New Windsor, NY/ Cornwall Central Catholic) came up with some big run-stuffing efforts late.

“Everybody feels good about their team this time of the year,” said Head Coach Walt Hameline who enters his 31st season at the helm with a record of 200-115-2. “Our offensive line is young. I think we're good on the perimeter. At the quarterback and the perimeter with our skill people I think we're really good but the offensive line is a group of players that haven't played together. Now the question is how do they line up and go the first game.

“Defensively, I like this group,” Hameline added. “I think we've got a chance to a really good defensive team. Now we've had some guys out with injuries and others who are banged up but that's football. Everybody got a chance to compete today, all of our freshmen and the whole crew. I think what you worry about early on too is your special teams and just how are the guys going to react when we kick it off for real next Saturday. But we've got a lot of film to look at from today, we got a good look at the offense, defense and special teams.

“Overall it was a good camp and we're excited where we are.”
