OM DETTA AVSNITT
In the runup to Duke University’s 2025 commencement exercises on May 11, we visit with two inspirational soon-to-be Blue Devil graduates. Star defensive end and Durham native VJ Anthony completed his African and African American Studies degree requirements in only three-and-a-half years and is locked in on one final college football campaign in the fall. Senior women’s tennis standout Ellie Coleman, an Environmental Sciences major, enjoyed an undefeated ACC singles season this spring and helped her team to an undefeated conference record and regular season championship. She’s eyeing a final run in the NCAA Tournament this month. And while both have been at the top of their games athletically, their Duke experiences have also included game-changing moments beyond the spotlight of competition.
