Wednesday’s violent attack in New Orleans has claimed the lives of at least 10 people, and one of those victims is former Princeton football player Tiger Bech.
Bech, a New Orleans native, played for Princeton from 2016-2018, and was an All-Ivy League kick returner. During his three-year career, he caught 53 passes for 825 yards with three touchdowns.
He graduated from the university in 2021 and pursued a career in finance. He was working as a stockbroker in New York City, but traveled back home to Louisiana for the holidays.
Bech was also the older brother of current TCU wide receiver Jack Bech.
Jack shared the news of his brother’s death on X with a tribute message.
“Love you always brother ! You inspired me everyday now you get to be with me in every moment. I got this family T, don’t worry. This is for us,” the TCU player wrote.
