Tulsa has signed Stevie Repichowski, a 6-foot-5 shooting guard out of Lansing, Mich., to a letter of intent.

"Stevie is a talented wing with good size," Golden Hurricanes coach Danny Manning said. "He has sneaky athleticism and is a very good shooter. Coach (Joel) Hannagan's teams at Kingdom Prep are well-coached, they play the game the right way, and they are very team-oriented.

Stevie is a good young man, and he will be a very good addition to our program."

Repichowski is coming off a junior season when he averaged 18 points per game and was a Michigan Class B All-State selection.
