Anderson was named All-Pacific Coast after the 1940–41 season; after Pearl Harbor was attacked, he joined the US Navy and spent two years at Great Lakes Training Facility, where he played basketball for Tony Hinkle.

He was fired in the spring of 1965, whereupon he was recruited to assist in creating the athletic department at Hiram Scott College.

After Hiram Scott closed its doors, he was the head coach of Peru's national team during the 1970–71 FIBA seasons.
