PULLMAN – Ernie Kent continues to fill his Washington State roster with junior college talent as the 2018-19 basketball season approaches.
On Sunday, sharpshooting point guard Ahmed Ali of Eastern Florida State College announced he’d signed a letter of intent with the Cougars, making him the fourth junior college addition of this class and the seventh on Washington State’s roster.
Ali (5-11, 165) is a native of Toronto, Ontario, and spent his last two seasons at EFSC in Bervard County, Florida, where he became one of the most accurate perimeter shooters in the country. He helped lead the Titans to the semifinal round and a third-place finish at the NJCAA Division I National Tournament and grabbed second-team All-American honors after scoring 17.
