CHAPEL HILL, N.C. --- Junior Greg Holt has earned an invitation to the 2010 USA Collegiate Baseball Team Trials, the organization announced Monday. The trials will run from July 5-11 at the USA Baseball National Training Complex in Cary, N.C.
Holt, who entered 2010 with just 10.2 career innings pitched, led the Carolina staff with 26 appearances this season. The junior right-hander led the Tar Heels with three saves en route to posting a 3-4 record.
The Clemmons, N.C., native recorded his first career win against Davidson April 21 and pitched six shutout innings in a win over NCAA tournament team College of Charleston May 12. Holt was one of Carolina's most reliable arms in the pen making an appearance in all four of the Tar Heels' postseason contests.
The USA Baseball National Team will be selected from the pool of players at the trials. The final 22-man 2010 USA Baseball Collegiate National Team will be selected on Sunday, July 11. The team will embark on a tour, which includes a domestic series with Korea and the FISU World University Championship in Tokyo, Japan.
