His teams have appeared in the postseason sixteen out of twenty-eight seasons. He has earned National Coach of the Year honors two times, and Conference Coach of the Year honors eight times.He began his coaching career at California State University, Dominguez Hills in 1983.

In only his first season, he went 41-19-1, and ultimately won four consecutive post-season tournaments. In 1992, his team won the only National Championship in school history.
