Ellison to play in SEC

Khadijah Ellison, Jermiah Burke senior, signed her letter of intent to attend Mississippi State.

The 5-foot-8 senior guard averaged more than 25 points in leading Burke to a 17-4 record last season and the Division 3 South sectional quarterfinals.

Ellison took an official trip to Temple in Philadelphia before deciding on Mississippi State. Quoted in the Boston Herald, Ellison said that “I liked the girls. I talked to the players to see how things were [at Mississippi State],” Ellison said of her visit. “I love everything about it.”

The Bulldogs posted a 21-12 record last year and made it to the Sweet 16 of the women’s NCAA Tournament.
