BOULDER – Steven Montez paid tribute to his fraternity, Sigma Pi, on Saturday after scoring his first rushing touchdown of the season for the Colorado Buffaloes. What he didn’t know at the time, was that he was paying tribute to the loss of a fraternity brother that passed away on Friday evening.

Eric Chase Bolling, a member of Sigma Pi at CU, died of a drug overdose according to TMZ on Friday afternoon. Bolling was struggling with his father’s, Eric Bolling Sr., ousting at Fox News.

“I ended up throwing the Sig Pi up after the touchdown,” Montez said.
