He set many school records in football while at Gettysburg, including the number of touchdown passes cought in a game, a season and a career - all three of which still stood at the time of his induction. In 1964, a year in which the Bullets carried off the Middle Atlantic Conference university division championship, he pulled in 37 passes for 673 yards and 11 touchdowns. He was the leading collegiate scorer in Pennsylvania that year, and was named to the Lutheran All-American and All-Conference first teams and was an honorable mention Little All-American. Not only did he lead the MAC in pass receiving for three straight years, but being a two-way performer, he was also a conference leader in pass interceptions.

For two seasons he earned All-Conference status in baseball. His career batting average was .341, and his biggest accomplishment on the baseball diamond came in his senior year when he caught in 14 games, handled the ball 115 times and did not commit a single error to finish with a .991 career fielding average.
