McAllen Memorial's Roehl Rodriguez signed to stay in the Valley to run at UTRGV on Wednesday.

Rodriguez competed with McAllen Memorial track and cross country. He ran the one-mile, two-mile, and 5k for the Mustangs and he's a three-time state qualifier.

"It means the most representing my community, where I'm from," Rodriguez said. "Getting to put my town on the map pretty much, competing for a really good school... The coaches, the athletes there, facilities, everything it just felt like a second home."
