Jeremy Holiday was a native of Lancaster, CA and attended Antelope Valley High School. He attended USF and at 6' 2", 210 lbs, played baseball for the Dons in 1998. He batted and threw left.
The other starting spots will be fought for by Jeff Bowman, a JC transfer who posted a gaudy 9-0 record last season with a 2.78 ERA, and a trio of freshmen, Jeremy Holiday, Chris Gossert, and Chris Thogersen. "The rotation is really still up in the air," said Hill. "We're seeing who has the stamina to go seven innings." The middle relief posts should be filled by sophomore Greg Moore and left-handed freshman Ryan Yamamoto, while freshman Chad Soares and junior Jason Zachos are penciled in as the Dons closers. "We're experimenting with closers right now, but we're running out of time. We face Santa Clara in two weeks. Thogersen and Holiday have really stepped up," he said. Buller, for one, likes what he sees in the young staff.Buller, for one, likes what he sees in the young staff.
