COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Junior Duke baseball student-athlete Devin Obee was announced by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) as a 2024 All-American Athlete recipient for his outstanding accomplishments as a student-athlete.
The NSCA award recognizes Obee's athletic accomplishments and his dedication to strength and condition. Nominated by coach Dan Perlmutter, Obee's determination to improve in athletics while maintaining academic prominence is a great model for all student-athletes.
"Obee is one of the best athletes at Duke in any sport," Perlmutter said. "He has elite speed, power, strength and athleticism, and has worked incredibly hard to develop and harness these assets to become a dominating power hitter and center fielder. Devin makes highlight plays on the field seem effortless and moves super heavy loads in the weight room at eye-popping speeds. He brings a quiet and powerful combination of humility and energy to his training. His teammates see this all the time and draw on that inspiration to make themselves better through their own work. Simply put people want to be Devin Obee. As a team captain, Devin understands that what he does and how he does it carries significant weight in the eyes of players and coaches alike. He's used that leadership role to help create a group of tough, resilient baseball players that care deeply about each other, and strive to work and play as hard as he does every day."
