Foote was a graduate from St. Labre High School in Ashland, MT and ran for the Buccaneers from 1967-1969. He was known as a fierce racing competitor. In Cross Country, he took first place out of 35 runners in the Region XIII meet in Bismarck, ND in 1967 with a time of 15:27 in the 2.7 mile race, finishing 19 seconds ahead of the next closest competitor. He led the team to a Regional Championship in 1967, but they were unable to travel to Nationals because of a lack of funding. He was also a two-time Mon-Dak Conference winner as an individual. In the 1967 Mon-Dak meet, he won it with a time of 15:53, leading Dawson to the title. In 1968, he won the Mon-Dak meet with a time of 15:32, beating out 31 other competitors and finishing 13 seconds ahead of 2nd place. Competing against four-year schools in the Teddy Roosevelt Run in Medora, Foote finished 3rd out of 46 competitors. He also won the Dickinson State College meet in 1967, helping Dawson Junior College beat out Dickinson State and Minot State for the title. In another four-year college event, he won the Eastern Montana Invitational, competing against runners from Eastern Montana College, Rocky Mountain College and Western Montana College on a 2.5 mile course. The Buccaneers won the conference and region championships in 1967 and the region championship again in 1968. It was their last region championship before the program was cut in 1971. Dawson spent 47 years without cross-country and track until it was resurrected again in 2018.
In track, Foote set the Trojan Relay Record for the Junior College Division with a 4:28.9 mile and a 10:12 two-mile run. At the Region XIII Meet in 1968, he finished first in the mile run and helped his 880 yard relay team win 1st place as well. Foote was 1st in every Mon-Dak and Region XIII race he ran in while he competed for Dawson.
