Uncommitted Spotlight: Recruitment 'A Blessing' For Lopez

Emma Lopez C / 3B / Alliance, OH / 2019

ALLIANCE - Growing up in Puerto Rico, Emma Lopez was another face in the crowd playing baseball.

“At the age of 9, 10, 11, 12 ... I was not very good,” Lopez admitted. “It was just a hobby and I didn’t care about it. But I had people say ‘you could be good if you take care of business.’ It was multiple people that said so. It was then I got serious about it.

“At 13 my confidence level got up and I was thinking ... I’ve just got to keep working at it.”

A little more than a year later, Lopez moved to Ohio and is now a junior at Alliance drawing interest from a large group of colleges.
