Saint Francis added another rushing touchdown in the second quarter.  This time, Nagaseu did get the handoff and bulled through the pile for a one-yard score.  It was Nagaseu's second rushing touchdown of his career, he also had one at East Tennessee State last year.  The drive started after Stewart picked off a pass over the middle and returned it to the Bryant 26.  Lewis caught two passes for 14 yards to help SFU get to First and Goal at the 5.  Three plays later, Nagaseu found his way into the end zone with 4:48 left in the first half.
