Athens Academy Wins Strength of American Award

Athens Academy has received the Strength of America Award from the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) and the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition for the eighteenth consecutive year.
Led by Coach Bryan Pulliam, Athens Academy’s strength and conditioning program was measured in four major categories: supervision, education, program, and facilities. The award will be presented during the NSCA’s National Conference Awards Banquet on July 19, 2025, in Kansas City, Missouri.
 
The NSCA provides all high schools with concise guidelines. “I am proud to have Athens Academy as part of our ongoing mission to improve the education and programs for all our youth,” says Eric McMahon, the NSCA’s Coaching and Sport Science Program Manager.
 
The Strength of America Award recognizes high schools that represent the gold standard in strength and conditioning programs.
