Wallace named player of week

Jonathan Wallace of Grambling State University was named as the SWAC Special Teams Player of the Week recently. 

Wallace was a significant part of Grambling State’s field position battle during the Tigers 49-31 win at Arkansas-Pine Bluff. He punted five times for 168 yards – an average of 33.6 yards per boot – but four of his punts pinned the Golden Lions inside of their own 20-yard line. Arkansas-Pine Bluff was unable to score on any of its drives that started inside of the 20-yard line.

Wallace is a 6’0”, 175 junior punter from Rayville.
