Natrell Jamerson Named MVP as West Wins East-West Shrine Game 2018 14-10

Texas Tech quarterback Nic Shimonek hit Houston wide receiver Steven Dunbar for the game-winning touchdown with just over a minute left to give the West a hard-fought 14-10 victory over the East on Saturday in the 2018 East-West Shrine Game at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida.

Wisconsin safety Natrell Jamerson (defense) and Northern Iowa wide receiver Daurice Fountain (offense) were named the Most Valuable Players for the 93rd edition of the event, which features senior college football stars from across the nation. Jamerson scored the West's first TD.

Aside from the late heroics, defense ruled the day as the teams combined for just 445 total yards in the postseason all-star game.
