Lily Holloway NTSC 2026

Water polo has become a huge part of my life, and this year means a lot to me as my final year of Youth before heading to USC to continue my career. Through the sport, I’ve learned discipline, teamwork, and how to push myself every day to improve. My journey hasn’t always been easy. There have been challenges, setbacks, and a lot of ups and downs along the way. Through it all, I’ve learned how to persevere, stay committed, and continue working to be my best. I’ve also learned how important it is to take care of my body and mind so I can compete at a high level. During my time in the ODP pipeline, I’ve been fortunate to be selected to national teams and have the opportunity to travel abroad, including Greece and Hungary. Those experiences have helped me grow and better understand what it takes to compete at the next level. I’m incredibly thankful for all of the coaches who have helped me along the way and pushed me to keep improving.

My Story

My story is about hard work and overcoming adversity to keep pushing myself to the next level. I’m grateful for every opportunity and excited to continue the journey.

Why I Love Water Polo

I love water polo because it challenges me every day and pushes me to grow as both an athlete and a teammate. I enjoy competing at a high level and being part of something bigger than myself.
