UNC Quarterback Gio Lopez Bringing Group-Of-Five Experience To ACC

Posted Jul 14, 2025
Gio Lopez took off running in his first game of flag football at age four, snatching flag after flag on defense. And when it came time for the young Lopez to receive the handoff at running back, he bolted...right over to his dad on the sideline. "He runs off the field, straight to me and says, 'Dad, I don't want them chasing me,'" Lopez's father, Barney said. (Inside Carolina)
