Austin Turfcats News Release
AUSTIN, Texas (4/20/10) - The Austin Turfcats announced today that they have signed WR/KR Darrick Wallace. Wallace will be on the Turfcats' active roster beginning this Saturday, April 24, against Corpus Christi.
Wallace (5'8"/175) was a key component of the Turfcats' 2009 SIFL campaign, with a total of 401 yards on 15 kick returns for 2 touchdowns and 253 yards on 5 field goal returns for 5 touchdowns, including a still-held SIFL league-record 59 yard return against Acadiana in the 2009 season opener. A veteran of the 50-yard game, and a standout at Grambling State, Wallace has previously played for teams in the af2, NIFL, and the Centex Barracudas and Katy Ruff Riders of the Intense Football League.
Wallace joins another recent addition to the Turfcats' lineup, DL Ryan Miles (6'2"/255). Miles, whose first game as a Turfcat was April 17 against West Texas, provided two fumble recoveries, including one for a touchdown. His college career at Texas College provided Miles an opportunity for two NAIA All-American honors and CSFL Defensive Player of the Year honors, prior to starting his pro career with the Edmonton Eskimos of the CFL.
Great seats are still available for each of the Turfcats' remaining home games - April 24 against Corpus, May 1 against San Angelo, May 8 against West Texas, and May 29 and June 19 against Arkansas. Tickets are available online at Turfcats.com.
