LINDSEY STEPHENS HOLLAND | SOFTBALL | TRACK & FIELD
Somerset, Kentucky | Pulaski County High School
2011–2015
Lindsey Stephens Holland stands among the most accomplished two-way athletes in Trevecca Nazarene University history. A dominant force both at the plate and in the circle, Holland was a two-time All-American, two-time Great Midwest Athletic Conference (G-MAC) Player of the Year, and one of the foundational stars of Trevecca’s transition to NCAA Division II.
A four-year starter for Coach Ben Tyree, Holland’s blend of power, consistency, and competitiveness made her one of the most feared hitters and most reliable pitchers in the Great Midwest. Her offensive numbers still rank among the best in program history—sixth in career batting average (.382), fifth in hits (239), and fourth in RBI (153). She also made her mark as a two-sport athlete, holding both the Trevecca indoor and outdoor shot put records in track and field.
