It is always a proud moment for the Emmaus community to see an Old Scholar taking their talents to the world stage.

We are extremely pleased to share the success of Allie Garcia, who is making significant waves in United States College Basketball, playing for St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas.

Allessandra (Allie) graduated from Emmaus Christian College in 2022, and she moved since then to the United States, studying Exercise and Sports Science at St. Mary's University in Texas. 

2025-26 Season Highlights:

Allie became the first Rattler this season to break the 20-point barrier, dropping 21 points in a thrilling one-point victory over Western Colorado. She famously took over the fourth quarter, sinking back-to-back deep three-pointers to seal the win.

In a crucial February matchup against Cameron University, Allie’s sharp-shooting helped the Rattlers qualify for the LSC Tournament, opening the second half with a momentum-shifting triple.

We congratulate Allie on her phenomenal season and her recent academic honors. We look forward to watching her senior year and seeing where her basketball journey takes her next!
