Basketball: Riverton's Grim transferring to Utah State

Grim visited USU last week and committed to join the program. The 6-foot-8, 220-pound center will have to sit out next year, per NCAA rules regarding transfers, and will be eligible to play the 2010-2011 season.
"He is thrilled to get the opportunity to be able to stay in his home state and join such a high quality program," his mother, Tracy Grim, said.
A sophomore after playing two seasons for Utah, Grim has two years of eligibility remaining.
The former Riverton High star who was The Tribune's Class 5A MVP his senior year averaged 0.8 points and 0.9 rebounds per game in his career at Utah and blocked 14 shots in 42 appearances.
