Max Holt
“Really, this summer and the whole four years is all about how you perform at the Olympic Games,” said USA’s head coach John Speraw and added “Max had a really incredible tournament, which is why we felt he was deserving.”
Holt was the second-leading blocker of the Olympic Games with 20 blocks for an average of .65 per set (Holt started all 31 sets the U.S. played in Rio). He was also second among all servers with 12 aces (.39 per set). He scored on 45 kills (.538 hitting efficiency) to put him 13th among all Olympic scorers.
“If we had played for a gold medal, I thought Max could have been the Olympic MVP. I thought he was the best middle blocker of the tournament” Speraw said.
