Luettgerodt, who is 6 feet 5 and 210 pounds, averaged 26.5 points, 8.2 rebounds and 3.2 assists last season as a sophomore at Chemeketa Community College (Ore.). He scored a school-record 53 points in one game during the season.

"I really liked the style of play that Hawai'i runs," Luettgerodt said. "And obviously you can't beat Hawai'i as far as being a beautiful place."

Luettgerodt led the Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges in scoring, and was selected the most valuable player of the NWAAC Southern Division.

He said he will send his official letter of intent to the UH coaches by tomorrow. He will be a junior next season and will have two seasons of eligibility.
