For the 11-2 Braves varsity, Wallace appeared in six games and converted 6 of 6 extra-point kicks, without attempting a field goal, while playing behind senior Marcus Lee, who appears headed for the U.S. Naval Academy. He was a teammate of Bosco linebacker Khmori House, who is a Husky freshman on scholarship and currently involved in spring practice.
On the JV level, Wallace kicked a game-winning field goal to beat Mater Dei 30-27 with three minutes remaining, though the distance wasn’t readily available.
Rather than be graded on his limited high school experience, Wallace has built his reputation while competing in Chris Sailer kicking camps and various national competitions. He purportedly has 50-yard-plus range on his field goals, 60 on his kickoffs, and is an aspiring punter.
Wallace, who’s from Manhattan Beach, similarly is a baseball and softball player, an outfielder,.
Should he end up at the UW as planned, he’ll become the second Wallace named CJ or C.J. to play in Montlake.
Cecil James “C.J.” Wallace from Sacramento, California, was an All-Pac-10 safety for the Huskies as a senior in 2006, capping a four-year career. He later played an NFL season for the Seattle Seahawks and in the UFL.
This latest Wallace is the second 2026 recruit to provide the UW with an oral commitment over the past week, joining running back Ansu Sanoe from Lakeridge High School in Lake Oswego, Oregon.
