Former North Catholic linebacker Nikhai Hill-Green, who ranked among the WPIAL’s top college recruits before transferring out of state, announced a Top 5 list Friday that included Pitt and four Big Ten schools.

Along with the Panthers, Hill-Green narrowed his list to Wisconsin, Michigan, Purdue and Indiana.

The 6-foot-2, 205-pound junior had ranked third among Pennsylvania recruits in the 2020 graduating class, according to Rivals.com. He transferred in February to St. Frances Academy in Baltimore.
