SALT LAKE CITY – Utah Runnin’ Utes head coach Larry Krystkowiak has announced the addition of Alfonso Plummer to the 2019-20 roster. Plummer, a sophomore out of Arizona Western Community College, signed an NLI to join the program on Tuesday.

“Alfonso is a great young man who will fit into our culture and system very well,” said Krystkowiak. “He is a great shooter. He has had quite the journey so far, and we are happy to have him join our program.”

Plummer, who originally hails from Fajardo, Puerto Rico, played two years at WACC where this past season he averaged 18.6 points and 3.5 rebounds. He helped guide the Matadors to a 25-9 overall record, a regional championship and a trip to the NJCAA National Tournament. He also managed to shoot .482 from the field overall on the year, .438 from three-point range and .888 from the three-point line.

The NJCAA Region I leader with 126 three-pointers made, Plummer would go onto earn NJCAA Division I All-American honors, while also being named ACCAC First Team All-Conference and First Team All-Region.

As a freshman at WACC, Plummer led the Matadors in scoring (14.9 ppg), shooting percentage (.514) and three-point shooting (.458), all while just starting three of the 33 games he played in. He also totaled 2.3 rebounds per game, while draining 103 three-pointers.
