EAGLE, Idaho --- Britta Holmberg's made a name for herself with a successful high school career in Eagle, Idaho. Now she will look to make a similar impact with the Eagles of Biola University.

Holmberg won the individual state title in the Idaho High School Activities Association (IHSAA) 1A competition in both 2016 and 2019. She also finished second in 2017 and third in 2018.

She was the captain of The Ambrose School team in 2019 and also participated in a student leadership program at her school (House Leadership).

"I chose Biola for the clear demonstration of devotion to God," said Holmberg. "I want to be in a community that strives for more. I cannot wait to run at Biola because of the camaraderie I witnessed on the team and the determination to do well of everyone involved."

She treks to Biola all the way from Idaho thanks to a connection with one of her coaches, who attended the university and put it on Holmberg's radar.

Holmberg will run cross country and track & field for the Eagles, coming to Biola with a cross country 5k personal-best of 18:44.4.

Catch Holmberg and her teammates in action beginning in fall 2020 at the Biola Invitational.
