This is culled from an article in the Winchester Star from July 2, 2016. I'm not cutting and pasting the entire article, just putting out the high points. This kid is a beast!!!
Rising Clarke County High School Junior Bryan Wallace was recently named the Boys' Athlete of the Year by the Winchester Star. As a defensive end and offensive guard in football who weighed 200 pounds, the 6-foot-4 Wallace played a starring role in helping the Eagles advance to its first state football championship game in school history. In wrestling, Wallace competed at 195 pounds, and he turned in the first perfect season in school history to win his second state title in two years. Wallace went 46-0 with 37 pins — he pinned 30 straight opponents before winning his championship match 4-0 — and surrendered just 11 points all year.
Wallace’s future appears to be brightest in football — numerous NCAA Division I schools are recruiting him — but wrestling is the sport that’s shaped him for as long as he can remember. His father Bruce, who passed away in 2005, was a two-time state champion wrestler in Pennsylvania and an NCAA Division I national championships qualifier at Bloomsburg (Pa.) University.
Virginia Tech is showing interest, as well as other ACC schools, but those weren't listed in the article.
He also participates in the shot put and discus throw for the track team in the spring, and the coach of the track team thinks he could do great things with that as well if he put more of his mind to it.
