Two Holmes Community College Lady Bulldog soccer players signed with four-year universities on Tuesday, Dec. 5, on the Ridgeland Campus. Brianna "Bree" Lopez signed with the University of Central Arkansas Bears, and Lillian Harvey signed with the Belhaven University Blazers.

Lopez, the daughter of Yecenia and Juan Lopez, is a sophomore forward from Fort Smith, Arkansas. She scored 13 goals this year, with two being game-winning goals. Of the 22 games she played in, she started in 19. Additionally, Lopez was placed on the 2023 All-MACCC Team (first team) following the season.

Harvey, daughter of Sharon and Jason Harvey, is a sophomore midfielder from Greenwood. She played in 15 games overall, with 10 being at the conference level.

Both players were a vital part of the 2023 team who ended the season 19-3 and won a share of the MACCC title. They traveled to Arizona for the NJCAA Division II National Tournament and won their first two pool games before falling in the semifinals.
