Air Force’s two-way competitor with true ace traits
Holst arrives at Air Force after a dominant 2025 at Libertyville, where he went 13-0, set the program’s single-season wins record, struck out 118 batters, and paired that with a bat that hit .361 with 44 RBIs. The left-hander’s differentiators are competitiveness, strike-throwing, and poise in high-leverage moments—he closed his prep career with a state title, pitched a complete game in the championship, and was praised for staying calm under pressure. That profile suggests a durable, high-IQ arm who can help a staff immediately if you value command and big-game mentality.
