2020 PAYCOM JIM THORPE AWARD WINNER
\n
TRE’VON MOEHRIG, TEXAS CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY <\/b><\/p>\n

\nTre\u2019von Moehrig began the 2020 season as the nation\u2019s top safety and finished it as the nation\u2019s top defensive back, winning the 2020 Paycom Jim Thorpe Award. The two-time All-Big 12 performer was named to seven All-America teams. Moehrig served as team captain in every game and finished third on the team with 47 tackles. He ranked among the national leaders at 1.1 passes defended per game, finishing 2020 with two interceptions and nine pass breakups. He was responsible for nine takeaways over his last two seasons at TCU, which tied for second in the FBS over that time. Moehrig was drafted by the Las Vegas Raiders as the 43rd<\/sup> overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Paycom Jim Thorpe Award<\/b> is awarded to the best defensive back in college football based on performance on the field, athletic ability and character. The award was established in 1986 and is named after history\u2019s greatest all-around athlete, Jim Thorpe. Thorpe excelled as a running back, passer and kicker on the offensive side of the ball, but also stood out as a defensive back. In addition to his legendary performance on the football field, Thorpe played professional baseball and won Olympic gold medals in the decathlon and pentathlon. The Paycom Jim Thorpe Award is universally accepted as one of the nation’s top collegiate sports honors.\n<\/p>\n

Paycom Software, Inc<\/b>. (\u201cPaycom\u201d) (NYSE:PAYC), a leading provider of comprehensive, cloud-based human capital management software, and the Jim Thorpe Museum and Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame jointly announced in May 2017 an exclusive sponsorship of the Jim Thorpe Award. As a result, the accolade has been named the \u201cPaycom Jim Thorpe Award.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
