Riley Morrison made school history last season at the Class 5A state wrestling tournament.

She was the first Princeton grappler in program history to compete and earn a state medal.

The junior added to her collection last week under the bright lights inside the Berry Center.

“I’m proud, but not content. I have more that I want to accomplish,” Morrison said. “I know I will have to keep the work ethic and not lose track of my goal of being a state champion.”
