The Johnstown Tomahawks of the North American Hockey League (NAHL) are pleased to announce that defenseman Isaac Holt has committed to play NCAA Division I commitment to Robert Morris University.

“I couldn’t be happier for Isaac on his much-deserved Division 1 Commitment to Robert Morris University,” said Johnstown Tomahawks Head Coach Mike Letizia. “As a young, first-year player with us last year, he made tremendous strides every step of the season and embraced the process of the journey to grow as a player. Isaac is truly a remarkable young man of the utmost character. Everyone loves him, and he is the type of person that would do anything for anyone. We are truly grateful for his trust in us as coaches and for his incredible commitment to the Tomahawks and the Johnstown community. The sky is the limit for him on and off the ice. I am so proud of him and just want to congratulate him, and his family!”

The 6’5/210 lbs. defenseman hailing from Pembroke, Ontario made a significant impact during the 2022-23 season while suiting up for the Johnstown Tomahawks. He contributed eight assists to the team’s success in his 45 appearances. In the ongoing 2023-24 season, Holt has already netted a goal during the NAHL Showcase.

“I am proud to announce my commitment to play Division 1 hockey and further my education at Robert Morris University,” said Isaac Holt. “I want to thank my family, friends, coaches, teammates, and the entire Johnstown Tomahawks organization for supporting me throughout this exciting process. Without these important people around me, I would not have been able to grow as a player and a person. Having so many people around me and the entire team is what makes Johnstown feel so special. Being together as not only a team, but a community and fan base is what will lead us to success individually, and more importantly as a team.”

Following the conclusion of his junior hockey career in 2025, Isaac is set to don the jersey of the Robert Morris University Colonials. Robert Morris competes in the Atlantic Hockey Conference and is located outside of Pittsburgh, PA. Notably, he joins a distinguished list of former Tomahawks players who have found their way onto the Colonials’ roster.
