After committing to continue his schooling and football career at Princeton University back in December, McNary linebacker Dyami Rios made it official by signing with the Tigers on Wednesday.

Rios, who graduates from McNary this spring, has proven himself to be one of the state’s best defensive players over the last two years. He led the Celtics in tackles (97) last season and was a first-team all-league tight end, leading McNary to the 2019 Mountain Valley Conference title.
