William Holt, 14E, 15GE Currently a striker for the USA National Field Hockey Team, William Holt, 14E, 15GE, graduated most recently with a Master's in Sports Ad- ministration from the College of Education and Human Development. According to his off cial Team USA bio, since the summer of 1996, Holt dreamed of playing in the Olympic Games. He was attracted to f eld hockey's fast pace and intensity in elementary school, and the mental and physiological challenge of the game kept him interested. "I love the pace of the game," Holt said. "It's played at such a high speed yet requires the deftest of abilities in maneuvering the ball. I f nd the sport electrifying." Field hockey has taken Holt around the world, including his debut for the U.S. in an Olympic qualifying tournament held in Auckland, New Zealand, in 2008. He is a force to be reckoned with, f nishing 4th in the World on the 2014 Top Goal Scorer's list. Holt continues to make strides towards his goal of walking through the tunnel at the opening ceremo- nies of the Olympic Games. Connect with William on Twitter: @willholt_11
