Marry named Player of the Week on Special Teams

ADRIAN, Mich.—Adrian College’s Taz Wallace and AJ Marry have been named MIAA Players of the Week for their efforts in the Bulldogs’ 28-45 loss at Alma College on Saturday.

Wallace, playing in his final college game, totaled 18 tackles against the Scots. He ends his career with 429 total tackles and an average of 13.41 tackles per game in his career. That makes him the most prolific tackler in the NCAA Division III history. The previous record for tackles-per game was Casey McConnell of Kenyon College with 13.28 tackles per game from 2001 to 2005.

Marry blocked two punts in his final Adrian College game while also totaling 10 tackles on the afternoon. He made two stops for lost yardage as well. The Hudson native totaled 49 tackles in seven games after missing the first three games of the season due to injury.

The Bulldogs ended the 2006 campaign at 5-5 overall and 4-3 in the MIAA.
