Golden Eagles sign athletic forward
ORU head coach Scott Sutton protests a foul call in the 2nd period of their game against NDSU in Tulsa, OK Feb. 28, 2009. MICHAEL WYKE / Tulsa World

Chris Angsomwine, a 6-foot-9 sophomore forward at Kilgore (Texas) Junior College, has signed to play basketball at Oral Roberts University. He will have two years of eligibility when he enrolls next fall.
"Chris fills a significant need for us for the future," ORU coach Scott Sutton said. "With (6-foot-9 senior) Kevin Ford graduating at the end of the (2009-10 school year), we wanted to try and get the best athletic big man we could find, and Chris certainly fits the bill."
Angsomwine, who hails from the African nation of Ghana, played sparingly at Harcum College in Philadelphia last season before transferring to Kilgore, where he is averaging 6.5 points and 7.5 rebounds in two games.
"Chris is a very athletic combo forward who is developing and maturing as a player," Kilgore coach Brian Hoberecht said.
Said Sutton: "He's a shot-blocker who can rebound. Chris is not a great scorer yet, but his offensive game is improving. He'll get better this year while playing at a top quality program."
Angsomwine is ORU's only likely addition during the November early signing period, which started Wednesday.
The Golden Eagles tip off the regular season Friday at Wake Forest.
