He was considered to be one of the top running backs at McNeese in the 1950s, leading the team in rushing in 1956 with 596 yards and in 1957 with 450. He also returned kickoffs and punts and in 1956 led the nation with a 30 yard average on punt returns, returning eight for 238 yards and a touchdown. A two-time all-Gulf States Conference pick, he is in the Ark-La-Tex Hall of Fame as a prep track athlete and is the only athlete from Shreveport to have ever won three events at the same state high school meet. He was drafted by the Chicago Bears after McNeese but opted to sign with Montreal of the CFL where his career ended due to injuries.
