In the circle, Holmes tossed 13 complete games and recorded nine wins, three of which came in shutout fashion. She also fanned 108 batters.
Holmes flourished at the plate as well for the Aggies. She was second on the team in average (.275) and runs batted in (19). She hit particularly well toward the end of the season, posting a .429 average through the last eight games of the season.
For her performance this season, Holmes was named first-team All-Big West.
