MOBILE, Ala.--Arizona senior defensive end Brooks Reed has been selected to play in the Under Armour Senior Bowl here Jan. 29.

Reed, 6-foot-3, 262 pounds, joins fellow end Ricky Elmore and offensive tackle Adam Grant, both picked for the East-West Shrine Game, as 2010 Wildcats in all-star games this year.

Reed, a four-year letterman who started 34 games for the Wildcats, finished with a career-best 47 tackles in 2010 including 6.5 sacks among 10 tackles for loss, plus two pass breakups and a forced fumble. He had 114 career tackles at UA and 17 career sacks. He earned first-team All-Pac-10 honors this past year.

The Senior Bowl will be played in Mobile Jan. 29, with the East-West Shrine Game to be held this Saturday (Jan. 22) in Orlando, Fla. Both games involve heavy scrutiny from NFL player personnel departments in early looks for the NFL Draft.
