Worcester Academy senior guard Rene Castro has verbally committed to Butler University for the 2013-14 season, he tweeted earlier tonight.

“Thanks for all of my family and friends who support me I have decided to commit to Butler University to play basketball,” the Milton resident wrote in a tweet tonight.

Castro joins Cushing Academy forward Andrew Chrabascz, a Portsmouth, R.I., native, among the local Class of 2013 products pledging to the Indianapolis school, which is beginning its first season in the Atlantic 10 Conference. Castro and Chrabascz also play for the same AAU team, the Boston Amateur Basketball Club (BABC).
