Grace Lopez is Montana’s spark plug in the infield
In the 2026 season, Grace Lopez emerged as one of Montana’s most dangerous bats, hitting .368 with 60 hits, 47 runs, 18 doubles and 25 extra-base hits, while earning second-team All-Big Sky honors at second base. She also showed clutch-pop — including a three-run homer in Montana’s postseason run — and her jump from a .200 freshman year to a lineup cornerstone says a lot about her work ethic and upside. Add in a 3.63 GPA and a reputation for steady, high-energy play, and you’ve got a smart fit for a program that values production, polish and edge.
