Lindsay Holland swam and played water polo at Punahou High School in Honolulu.  She earned a four-year water polo scholarship to Stanford University and was an All-American Honorable Mention her freshman year.  She spent three years  as a co-captain of the team and as an Academic All-American.  Her senior year, she won The Donald Kennedy Award, an award presented to the Stanford senior athlete who best exhibits the combination of excellent academics, strong athletic ability and community service.  It is the highest honor from the Stanford Athletic Department.

Since, 2000, she has taught English and coached water polo at Saint Francis High School.  During her coaching career, she has guided the JV team through two undefeated seasons and she has assisted the Varsity team in four consecutive CCS victories.  What she loves most about water polo is the teamwork, leadership and sportsmanship that the game requires.

Lindsay recently completed her MFA degree in Creative Writing from the University of San Francisco.  She is writing a novel and pursuing her long-time dream of being a writer.
