following: induction into the Southern California Basketball Coaches 
Hall of Fame, ``Basketball Coach of the Decade'', and CIF/SS All-star

Director, he has also served as President to the Southern California 
Interscholastic Basketball Coaches Association, was the President to 
the Orange County Athletic Directors' Association, and was the
