TCU wide receiver Jack Bech was selected MVP of the Senior Bowl on Saturday, catching the winning touchdown pass a month after his brother died in the deadly pickup truck attack in New Orleans.

Jack Bech already had a lot of reasons to perform well at the Senior Bowl, but an unthinkable tragedy had given the TCU wideout even more incentive to stand out while competing against other NFL draft prospects.

Bech was also voted Senior Bowl MVP with six receptions, 68 yards and the winning score. Memphis quarterback Seth Henigan, a former Denton Ryan alum, made the pass to Bech on fourth-and-goal from the 2-yard line as the American team defeated the National team 22-19.
