Plummer’s right foot played a big part in helping Saint Francis U make history on Saturday afternoon in the Buckeye State. The Keystone State native became the first NEC kicker this season to rack up double digits in points after he turned in a perfect day at Kent State. Converting on each of his three field goal attempts and both of his PATs, he helped the Red Flash score the program’s first-ever victory over an FBS opponent. Plummer gave Saint Francis U a lead it would not relinquish just five minutes into the game when he booted a career-long 50-yard field goal. With the field goal, which was the 10th longest in the FCS this season, he became the fifth Red Flash kicker — and the 24th in NEC history — to convert from 50 yards out. Later in the first half, Plummer gave Saint Francis U its largest lead of the game — a 13-point advantage — with a 33-yarder. A redshirt junior, Plummer also kept the Golden Flashes at bay after he averaged 56.0 yards per kickoff with a pair of touchbacks. Saint Francis U’s victory marks the second time in conference history that an NEC team knocks off an FBS opponent, as the Red Flash join Duquesne, which defeated Ohio, 28-26, in a road game on Sept. 11, 2021.
