Holstege played in 32 games at Purdue, starting 31. He redshirted in 2019 and played in six games in 2020 but didn’t use a year of eligibility due to the Covid-19 pandemic. He then started 26 games for Purdue across the next two seasons, including on the 2022 team that played in the Big Ten Championship Game. He earned All-Big Ten honorable mention that year.

In one season at UCLA, Holstege played in all 13 games for the Bruins, including the bowl on Dec. 16, a win in the LA Bowl.

Holstege played high school football at Grand Rapids South Christian (Mich.) High School, where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 1462 overall recruit in the 2019 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
