“I am thrilled to assist these talented athletes in representing USA in Colombia,” said Holas. “Competing internationally and representing your country is what every athlete and coach aspires to.

My goal is for them to learn each other’s strengths as quickly as possible and play the game as passionately as possible to best represent the name on the front. Go USA!”
