He had an immediate impact with the Saints as he led them to one of the most remarkable seasons in school history.  With only a 6-man player rotation, Siena greatly overachieved with an 11-4 home record and a run to the MAAC Tournament semifinals.

Before his time at Siena, Anderson was an established head coach at the Division III level at Hamilton College and Clarkson University.  While at Hamilton, he posted a 118-63 record over a seven year span, with a .652 winning percentage.   The Continentals reached the league tournament five out of his seven years, including a tournament championship and a trip to the NCAA DIII tournament.  Anderson guided his team to the second round of the NCAA's in 2006 as well as three regular season titles. 

Prior to arriving at Hamilton, Anderson earned his first head coaching position at Clarkson University in Potsdam, N.Y.  In his five years with the Golden Knights, he broke the school record for wins, with a 19-10 season in 2001-02.  The team advanced to the ECAC regional championship game and was the third-most improved Division III men's basketball team from the previous season.  Anderson's first team finished the 1999-2000 season with a 14-12 record, it's first .500 season in 25 years, earning the program's first-ever post season bid.

Anderson spent three years as an assistant coach; two years at LeMoyne College, from 1997-1999.  He also started his college coaching career as an assistant at Clarkson in 1996, where he would later return.  He has been involved in numerous basketball camps and clinics and has produced two basketball individual instruction DVD's.  He is a lecturer and clinician at the nation's two most prestigious basketball camps; Hoop Group Elite and Five-Star basketball camp.
