Versatile Junior College RB Cyncir Bowers Commits to WVU Football

Late Friday night, the WVU football staff gained another transfer commitment in junior college running back Cyncir Bowers, who made his announcement on social media after his recent visit.

After proving himself at the junior college level, Bowers is looking to elevate his game as a Mountaineer. He already established himself as a versatile force and is coming off monster production at Iowa Central Community College.

Bowers ran for 1,008 yards with an 6.5 yards per carry average and scored 12 touchdowns. In the padding game, he made 24 receptions for 363 yards and added two more scores as a receiver.

The 5-foot-10, 184-pound Harrisburg, Pa. native even returned 13 kickoffs for a total of 344 yards, including a 100-yard return for a touchdown. He returned seven punts for 148 yards with a 21.1 yards per return average.

Bowers picked West Virginia over offers from Bowling Green, Florida State, Georgia State, Memphis, Old Dominion, Troy, Western Michigan, and several others.
