"I'm excited about going out there," said Lipp, who will compete in the Warriors' training camp next month.
Because Lipp committed after the spring signing period, he signed a scholarship agreement with the Warriors. Such a document means the Warriors must reserve a scholarship for Lipp.
Lipp, who is 6 feet 3 and 265 pounds, was an offensive tackle for Chino. "I'm not sure where I'll end up (playing at UH)," he said.
He was named to the All-Sierra League first team. He also was invited to compete in the Inland Empire Classic, a game matching all stars from San Bernardino and Riverside.
Lipp also was named his school's winner of the Principal's Award for academics. His cumulative grade-point average is 3.7, and he has received a qualifying score on the SAT.
