Butler football running back Duvante Lane starts his day before the sun rises. He heads to Hinkle Fieldhouse with one goal in mind: getting better.
Lane and the rest of the Butler University football team work with head strength and conditioning coach Jim Peal in Hinkle’s basement. The 6:30 a.m. full-body workouts include bench and squat exercises with auxiliary lifts and core work. Lane said he knows his teammates are ready to compete.
“Guys have really come out and put in a lot of work,” Lane said. “We’ve been able to see how guys have grown through the offseason, so we’re really excited to put it all together.
