This contributed to his election to the All-MIAA first team. In basketball, as a senior he established a new Olivet scoring career mark of 1042 points. He made significant contributions by starting every game for all four years. In 1956 he was given All-MIAA Honorable Mention and in 1956-57 he was voted Most Valuable Player by his teammates. Both his records and his spirit will long endure in the sports arena at Olivet.
