TULSA, Oklahoma -- Booker T. Washington point guard Korey Billbury confirmed Tuesday that he will be playing college basketball for the Oral Roberts Golden Eagles.

The 6-foot-2 shooting guard told Oklahoma Sports Tuesday evening that he has already sent in his letter of intent to ORU, locking him in for the 2011 recruiting class.

In his junior season with the Hornets, he played a pivotal role in Booker T. Washington’s run to a second consecutive gold ball, averaging 11 points and 3.8 rebounds per contest.

Billbury joins 6-foot-9 power foward Kris Obaseki and 6-foot point guard D.J. Jackson in the Golden Eagles' 2011 recruiting class.
