Hopkins basketball star Nia Hollie ready to pick between Gophers, Michigan State

Nia Hollie made up her mind earlier this year on where she was going to play college basketball.

Only close friends and family knew about the choice.

Since then, the five-star Hopkins forward decided to reopen her recruitment, and now she finally is ready to announce her choice Thursday night. She has narrowed her list to two schools, the University of Minnesota and Michigan State.

Hollie said she will make the announcement during the 6 p.m. or 10 p.m. Channel 5 newscast.

"It was kind of hard to go back," the 6-foot-1 senior said.
