In 1995, Balceiro was the first Cuban canoeist to take home an international championship and win the Pan-American Games C-1 1000 m gold medal in Mar del Plata, Argentina.

In 1999, at the Pan American Games in Winnipeg, Balceiro duelled with Canadian Steve Giles, the reigning world champion in the C-1 1000 m event. Giles took his C-1 1000m championship ahead Balceiro and the two teams swapped positions for the C-1500 m competition.

In 2003 they won both C-2 finals at the Pan American Games (500 m and 1000 m) and went to the World Championships at Gainesville, USA, as favourites. Unlike their main European rivals they again entered all three C-2 events. They finished fourth in the C-2 500 m, but were awarded bronze after the Russian team was stripped of their silver medals following Sergey Ulegin’s doping disqualification. The Cuban pair had had very little recovery time since the Pan-American Games however and, this time, their grueling race schedule took its toll on Rojas and they finished outside the medals.
