The Louisville Courier-Journal is reporting that Lexington Catholic High School senior Vee Sanford has committed to Georgetown. No official word yet from the university, but the 6’3″ shooting guard was seen visiting campus this weekend.

ESPN has Sanford ranked as the 70th shooting guard in the class of 2009, and describes him as “a skilled, long athlete that has the ability to score in a variety of ways.”

Sanford might not qualify as a highly touted recruit, but a depleted Hoyas team will be happy to have him on its bench. With the transfer of Omar Wattad and DaJuan Summers heading to the NBA, only seven players from last year’s squad will be returning next season, plus freshman Hollis Thompson, who enrolled early this January and began practicing with the team.
