A five-time individual league champion, the Doylestown, Ohio, native twice won titles in the still rings and parallel bars in addition to claiming the 1990 all-around championship. A team captain in 1993, he was a three-time NCAA Championships qualifier and a 10-time NCAA East Regional qualifier, in addition to earning top honors on the rings at the 1992 and 1993 National Independent Championships.
