Hall of Fame
A three-time Southern Conference champion in the javelin (1997, 1998 & 1999), Kristopher Kut added another all-conference honor when he finished second in 1999. He held the school record in the javelin (204’-10” that he broke during the State Championships, which he won) for 14 years until two throwers he coached topped it in 2015. During his career, he captured first place 14 times out of 37 opportunities (38 percent), won first place in six of 12 chances his senior year, and was a top-3 finisher in 30 of 37 meets (81 percent). A four-time letterwinner who was twice named the team captain, Kut was a Dean’s List recipient who held rank in the Corps of Cadets and who was a member of the college’s inaugural student-athlete advisory committee. Kut has been an assistant track and field coach at The Citadel since he graduated.
