His office door
simply says, Track & Field Coach. His life
says infinitely more. Al Buehler has touched and
enriched the lives of thousands of athletes
including Olympians Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Carl Lewis
and Joan Benoit Samuelson, world champion Mary
Decker Slaney, as well as Duke icons Grant Hill,
Shane Battier, and Coach K. (Mike Krzyzewski) and
the lives of thousands more who have never owned a
pair of track shoes. For 55 years, Buehler has
inspired athletes and met enormous challenges,
breaking ground in race relations, women's
athletics, and international sport.
Produced by Grant Hill and Amy Unell. Director of
Photography: Gregg Hoerdemann. In competition
