Varsity Assistant Coach Mike Holmquist

Michael Holmquist

Varsity Assistant Coach/Statistician

While Michael is sure that most of the young men on the team think he’s been around since dirt, he’d like to dispel this rumor by stating he knows for a fact that dirt arrived a good two or three years before he did.

Michael started coaching baseball many years ago at Hopkins for their in-house program. After he graduated from high school, his family moved to Burnsville where he continued to coach. He’s coached at every level from T-ball to town ball and enjoyed the surprises each level has brought. He has also continued to play either baseball or softball since he’s been 8 years old. Michael is a graduate, registered professional engineer, and has received two United States patents. He has since sold the company that he founded and is now semi-retired.

As a sidewise factoid, Michael is also a writer and had several of his poems published.
