“I’ve been looking forward to [the AFL] a lot. That was the biggest thing toward the end of the year,” Holt said. “I knew it, the coordinators knew it — it was a mental year, I got caught in the quicksand and it’s hard to come out of it. It was just all in my head, it was frustrating all year.”
“I’m getting a fresh start out here,” he said. “I went to instructs, and just being down there, it helped clear my head after the season and allowed me to get back in the zone. I felt comfortable, I started throwing strikes and I think it’s continued.”
