Wolf Pack alum Mike Senior dies

Mike Senior, one of the most productive receivers in Wolf Pack history, has died, according to the Nevada football team's Twitter.

Senior played for Nevada from 1991-94 and then was a longtime member of the campus' IT team. A cause of death was not given.

Senior is 15th on Nevada's all-time receiving list (2,074 yards) and helped the Wolf Pack transition from Division I-AA to the Division I level.

Senior's most productive season came when he was a junior in 1993 and caught 58 passes for 962 yards and five touchdowns. During an injury-plagued senior season, Senior caught 37 passes for 496 yards and five touchdowns in seven games.
