Ellsworth Community College is proud to announce the signing of two current baseball players, Johnathan Fleek and Tyrus Lopez, to continue their playing and academic careers.

Fleek, a native of Albert Lea, MN, has signed to continue at Western Illinois University in Macomb, IL. Lopez, a native of Montrose, CO, will be continuing his college career at the University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff.

"I'm extremely proud of these two student-athletes," says ECC Head Baseball Coach Travis Akre. "They represent Ellsworth and our team in a first class manner. They have earned their way to these programs with their talents, but most importantly their academics!"
