As we enter conference play for UNF Baseball, it’s the perfect time to share the latest ventures of former Osprey pitcher, Peter Holden. Right after graduation, he was recruited to join the Savannah Bananas’ sister squad, the Party Animals.

As an Osprey, Holden remembers his team as a great group of guys who could just be themselves and have fun along the way, which may have caught the attention of the Bananaland recruiters. He loves that the organization prioritizes fan experience in a way that is refreshing for both the player and the viewers.

Holden has found a way to include even more excitement in his life with his recent engagement to his high school sweetheart and fellow Osprey alum, Kylie Matheny ('23). Learn more.
