Ohio’s Derek Culver chooses WVU basketball

WVU head coach Bob Huggins got his main man by landing Culver earlier this week. The power forward from Ohio Division I Warren Harding High School is a major playmaker in a tough prep division, so that experience will help him at the collegiate level.

Culver was regarded as a four-star prospect by many national recruiting sites. He’s been on the radar by many colleges for the past three seasons, ever since he stepped onto the varsity scene as a freshman at Warren Harding. Since then, he has been on the fast track to becoming a Mountaineer.
