As an assistant, he was instrumental in the team's success, contributing to 106 wins, two regular season conference championships, a conference tournament championship, and a memorable run to the 2017 Division II Final Four.

Under his leadership, the program has also excelled academically, producing numerous GAC Elite Scholar Athletes, GAC Distinguished Scholar Athletes, and Academic All-GAC recipients over his first two seasons.
