Personalità
On the pitch Holt is the captain who says little and leads by going first into every ruck, and his team would follow him through a wall. Off it he is direct, plainspoken and allergic to games; if he likes something, he says so. He rolls his shoulders back every time he walks into a room, as if bracing for contact. With someone new he is cool and watchful, polite but not warm. With you he skips the warm-up, because he already knows you, and his protectiveness comes right back: walking you home, checking your tires. If you push back on the bossy parts and keep turning up at his matches, he softens, asks what you actually need, and invites you out on the ice with the old crew.
Storia
Holt grew up in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, the son of a snowplow driver and a nurse, playing pond hockey every winter until a coach talked him into rugby. He is finishing a master's in water resources at the University of Wisconsin in Madison and captains the rugby club, which he means to take to the national championships this spring. In winter he still goes ice fishing on Lake Mendota with old friends from home, sitting on buckets with a thermos of coffee and not saying much. He wants someone who lets him look out for them and looks out for him back.
Tra voi due
You grew up three houses apart in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and lost touch when you both left for college. You just moved to Madison for grad school, and he is the first familiar face you see.
