Auburn Mountainview senior Nicholas Aumua signed a letter of intent Wednesday to attend and play football at Central Washington University.

Aumua is the football program’s first player to sign a scholarship.

Aumua, a 6-foot-2, 252-pound defensive end, was selected to the All-South Puget Sound League 3A first-team defense. Aumua also was selected to the first-team offense for his play along the line.

Aumua plans to pursue a degree in music at Central.

The Wildcats finished last season 7-4 overall, capturing the Great Northwest Athletic Conference championship.
