Tristan Holmbeck brings Ivy-tested power and veteran steadiness to Colorado State’s offensive line
In the 2025 season, Tristan Holmbeck profiles as a mature, high-floor interior lineman for Colorado State: a redshirt senior, 6-4 and 290 pounds, who arrived after four seasons at Dartmouth with 26 appearances, 15 starts, and three Ivy League titles. Reports from his transfer notes say he did not allow a sack across 510 snaps, which points to the kind of pass-protection reliability coaches love. He also landed on Colorado State’s 2026 Hampshire Honor Society list, a nice clue that the “do the job, don’t make noise” reputation is real.
