Locals Dante Barrett and Jared Deiters competed in the June 17 OCB Emerald Coast Classic bodybuilding event and walked away with four second places and one fourth place. The lifelong friends have much in common: graduating from Niceville High School Class of 2020, pursuing Exercise Science bachelor’s degrees at the University of West Florida, attending Northwest Florida State College during summer breaks and sharing a passion for living healthy, natural and fit lifestyles. Both also owe their disciplined approach to their Eagle Pride high school band experience.

This was Dante’s second OCB competition in the Physique and Open categories, where he placed second and fourth, respectively. And this was Jared’s first professional competition in the Debut, Novice and Open categories, placing second across all three. Their six-month training plan paid off as they elicited a wild response from the audience.
