The University of Wisconsin-Madison would like to nominate Devin Mulrooney as the Most Outstanding Senior Male for 2022. First and foremost, Devin brought a new, competitive and invigorating energy to our Men’s slalom team never seen before. After his first eventful year on the team, he proved himself captain-worthy with his clutch tournament performances on both A and B teams to cement his position on the slalom team. But his ambitions did not stop at just gaining a position on the board or the slalom team, he pushed himself in practice during the summer to become the best skier he could, and the results showed. Devin won Hawkeye ski fest, skiing into 32 off the line at 34 which is the first time I’ve seen a UW skier so pitted and stoked. When you see a DAWG performance like this you start to question if maybe slalom can be …cool? PBs became the norm for each tournament even for other top slalomers on our squad like Victor ‘Igor’ Banovetz showing some emotion this year! Although these events may seem isolated from the “shoreside” of things Devin committed many hours to changing the oil in the boat, setting up a new jump practice, driving new skiers, teaching new skiers, creating a dockside vibe for each skier, and so much more. You truly cannot put into words what The Devin Effect is but all you’ve got to know is he has that DAWG in him.
