Duquesne University Athletics

John Bute joined Duquesne track & field staff in September 2016 as an assistant coach, leading the throwers.

Since Bute came to The Bluff, three school records have fallen and six of his athletes have posted top five marks in school history. Over three seasons, at least one thrower has scored at the Atlantic 10 Championship meet for the Dukes.

Bute earned a Bachelor of Arts from Denison University, where he was a member of the Big Red track & field team for four seasons and football team for two. Bute finished in the top 10 in school history in the shot put, discus and hammer.
