Last season, Wallace continued to build up his name coming off a strong 2022 campaign for the Rockets. In 2023, the defensive back helped Miami Rockets to a 8-4 record this past season.

Wallace was an instrumental piece to Miami Central winning the 2022 Class 2M state championship as a sophomore, with the 5-foot-11, 180-pound defensive back making 44 tackles, 10 passes defended and two interceptions.

The Rockets' star decided on the Hurricanes over a slew of colleges, including Alabama, Colorado, Florida, Kentucky, LSU, Maryland, Mizzuo, Penn State, Texas, UCF, USC and USF.
