Holland shared,

“I am so grateful to announce my verbal commitment to swim at Florida State University! I’m so thankful for my family and their endless support, as well as my teammates, coaches, and doctors! Coach Neal has a great vision for the team and it seems like the team is ready to work hard. The journey to this point in my swimming career has been so exciting and I can’t wait to continue competing as a SEMINOLE!!!”

Holland swims for Cox Mill High School and is a USA Swimming Scholastic All-American. She is the defending NCHSAA 3A state champion in the 100 backstroke (56.51). Since 2015 she has taken over a second off her 100 backstroke time. At last year’s high school state she was also sixth in the 100 butterfly (58.95).

While Holland is not yet in ACC scoring range, she’ll join a Seminole program entering a new era under Head Coach Neal Studd.

Kara Coughlin has also given her verbal commitment to Florida State.
