Career
Holdren is currently on the Avon Products tour playing with Jeff Nygaard. Holdren was a late-comer to the sport of volleyball and did not begin playing until his junior year in high school. He joined the Avon Products in 1997 and was the tour"s rookie of the year.
He started his career playing with Todd Rogers, a teammate of his at San Marcos High School in Santa Barbara.
The duo had eight wins together, including a World Tour victory in 2000 that was reached through qualification. In 2002, they were considered the dominant partnership on tour.
Fonoimoana split with Holdren in 2003. During the 2005 Avon Products season, Holdren and Nygaard were the second-ranked pair in the league.
Holdren himself finished second on the tour in digs with 909.
Holdren and Nygaard are still primary partners, but in the 2007 season, Nygaard"s treatment for cancer has reduced their play time together. While Nygaard underwent treatment, Holdren partnered with Kevin Wong in several tournaments. In his career, Holdren has 14 total wins on the Avon Products tour (eight with Rogers, five with Fonoimoana, one with Nygaard), most recently coming in 2005.
He has had several sponsors, notably being sponsored by Nautica along with Mike Lambert.
