He led the team to 8th place at the 1974 World Championships and 11th at the 1978 World Championships. In 1975 his team captured bronze at the Pan- American Games establishing the program as one of the strongest in the Americas. The team also played exceptionally well at the 1976 Olympics surprising some of the top teams in the world with their athletic ability and technical preparation.
