Autorenporträt
Taz Wallace ended his Adrian College career as the most prolific defensive player in NCAA Division III history. His career average of 13.41 tackles-per-game is a Division III record and ranks second all-time in any division. His school record 429 career stops eclipsed the previous mark by 140 tackles. He served as a team captain and was the squad's most valuable player three times, while earning multiple All-American honors, All-MIAA honors and additional national recognition. He was also a participant in the East Coast and Magnolia Bowls in 2006. His time on and off the field inspired him to write The Game That Almost Broke Me, a chronicle of his career as an NCAA player and what came after.
