Anderson has had the privilege to train four athletes to NCAA titles individually - Leonard Scott, Jabari Greer, Gary Kikaya and Justin Gatlin. Collectively, the foursome earned 10 NCAA gold medals between 1999 and 2003. Anderson, who is deeply drawn to the challenge of coaching two-sport athletes, polished the track skills of football players Scott and Greer. Scott became the first Anderson-coached athlete to earn an NCAA title by virtue of winning the 60 meter dash in 1999 while Greer won the 60 meter hurdles in 2003. Working with Coach Anderson, Scott set the collegiate record for 60 meters at 6.48 and notched personal bests of 10.05 for the 100 meters and 20.34 for 200 meters. Greer, currently playing for the Buffalo Bills, set PR's of 7.55 for the 60-meter hurdles and 13.32 for the 110-meter hurdles. Both athletes successfully made the annual transformation from football player to track athlete.
