WICHITA FALLS, Texas -- Midwestern State announced the signing of multi-sport star Dyamon Griggs to a National Letter of Intent Monday afternoon.
Griggs, a 5-11 forward, led Waco University High to the bi-district round of the UIL Texas Class 5A playoffs as a senior in the spring. The District 14-5A Offensive MVP averaged 21 points and 17 rebounds for the Trojans.
"Dyamon is a truly versatile forward," MSU coach
Christopher Reay said. "She can score with physicality and finesse. Dyamon also has the ability to stretch the floor by attacking off of the dribble and shooting from the perimeter. She has a nose for the ball when it comes to rebounding on the offensive and defensive ends of the court. I am really excited to coach her over the next four years."
Griggs was named to the Super CenTex team by the Waco Tribune-Herald following her season in 2021-22 after leading the Trojans to their first playoff appearance in four years. She was also the District 14-5A Newcomer of the Year following her junior season.
Griggs is also a standout in track and field at University High. She recently finished as runner-up in the District 14-5A Championships in both throwing events. Griggs produced a heave of 41 feet, 1 inch in the shot put and set a personal record with a throw of 134 feet in the discus.
Griggs advanced to the UIL Texas Class 5A State Championships in 2021 finishing eighth with a mark of 38 feet, 3 inches in the shot put.
She intends to major in kinesiology at Midwestern State.
The Mustangs are coming off of a back-to-back winning campaigns and have advanced to the Lone Star Conference Postseason Tournament for each of the last five years.
