Storms completed an illustrious career for the Methodist cross country and track and field teams as a four-time All-American and a six-time NCAA qualifier — fifth at the 1989 NCAA cross country championship; second in the 1,500-meter run at the 1988 indoor national meet and fourth in the 1,500 at the outdoor meet; and sixth in the 1,500 at the 1989 outdoor championship.

He captured individual Mason-Dixon Conference titles at the 1987 and 1988 cross country championships; won the 1,000 and mile at the 1988 and 1990 indoor conference meets; and captured the 1,500 title at the 1989 outdoor championship. His performance at the 1990 indoor conference championship earned him the meet's MVP honor.

Upon his graduation he owned the MU records in the 8K and 10K in cross country; the 800, 1,500 and 5,000 in outdoor track (as of his 2021 induction, the records in the 800, 1,500 and 5,000 still stand); and the 1,500 and mile in indoor track.
