Tatyana Vega brings two-way upside and proven winning pedigree to UTEP
Vega entered UTEP with rare two-way credentials: at Sunnyside High School, she posted a .470 career batting average with 170 hits, 151 RBIs, 53 pitching wins, a 2.20 ERA, and 602 strikeouts, making her a legitimate impact option in the infield and in the circle.[1][6] UTEP’s roster notes highlight her as a three-time Southern Region Player of the Year, while her early college season has shown the adjustment curve is real, with a 5.50 ERA in 2026, but her strikeout pedigree and versatility still make her an intriguing fit for teams valuing competitive toughness and multi-position flexibility.[5][6]
