Scheving joined the Bulls' coaching staff as an Assistant Coach in 2025, helping with the distance program and men's cross country.
In 2025-26, his first season overseeing the men’s distance program, the Bulls had their best performance at the MAC Cross Country Championships since 2020. The team finished fourth with 97 points, led by Jacob Brink, who earned All-MAC First Team honors. Scheving’s athletes also carried their success to the indoor and outdoor seasons, with the men’s distance program adding 13 performances to the program’s all-time top 10. Noah Brightman headlined the academic year by setting a new school record in the men’s mile at Boston University’s David Hemery Valentine Invite. Aidan Norris earned All-MAC Second Team honors under Scheving’s guidance, placing second in the men’s 800-meter at MAC Outdoor Championships. At MAC Indoor Championships, the Bulls earned second in the distance medley relay, naming Norris, Michael Huebner, Noah Brightman and Collin Stafford All-MAC Second Team.
For the past three years, Scheving served as the Head Coach of Cross Country and Track and Field at Canisius University. Under his guidance, the Golden Griffins were a mainstay in the top five at Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Cross Country Championships. Canisius also set 20 new track and field school records across the indoor and outdoor seasons.
Scheving returns to UB for a third time, following stints as both a volunteer assistant coach for the Bulls and a student-athlete. The Western New York native competed in both cross country and track for five years. During his career, Scheving was a three-time MAC champion, with two distance medley relay MAC titles in 2014 and 2015, culminating with an individual MAC title in the 800-meter in 2017.
Scheving still holds UB's school records in the indoor 800-meter (1:48.92) and outdoor 800-meter (1:48.37). He was also a member of the Bulls' relay school records in the indoor distance medley relay (9:47.77), outdoor distance medley relay (7:23.00), and the outdoor 3,200-meter relay (7:23.00).
"I am thrilled to have Coach Scheving come back to the University at Buffalo," said Program Director and Head Coach Vicki Mitchell. "His history with our program as a former record-setting standout student-athlete and volunteer coach will make his transition back to the Bulls easy. He has shown success in building a program at Canisius University, recruiting top-level student-athletes who have continued to develop under his guidance. We are excited to add his strong skill set to our coaching staff."
