Erik Holt, one of RSL’s homegrown complement, has been a member of the Real Salt Lake organization since being a player with the Arizona academy. He spent his college years at UCLA, and has a drive to be the best.
While not always the first choice at center back for the RSL lineup, when he has been on the pitch we have actually seen some solid defending.
There have been many opinions about Erik tossed around social media. There have been criticisms, but he has continued to work hard to improve on the field. He also scored his first MLS goal this season, giving RSL a stoppage time win against the Vancouver Whitecaps with a game-winning goal.
