Ithaca College Athletics

Arguably the greatest player to suit up in an Ithaca College men's basketball uniform, Sean Burton is the only three-time All-American in the program's 90-year history. Burton ranks first all-time in free throw percentage (.900), second in career assists (556), third all-time in career points (1,736), third in career 3-pointers made (261) and sixth in career steals (163).

On the single-season record board, he is first all-time in points scored with 598 and free throw percentage (.914) during his senior season. He averaged 22.1 points per game during his senior campaign and guided the Bombers to a 24-3 record, a school record for wins, and a trip to the NCAA Tournament.

Burton led IC in scoring three straight seasons, was a three-time All-Empire 8 selection, two-time Empire 8 Player of the Year, two-time All-East Region honoree by D3hoops.com and the NABC and was the 2008-09 D3hoops.com and NABC East Region Player of the Year.

After IC, Burton went on to play professionally in Iceland for two seasons and was a two-time All-Star for the Iceland Express. In his first season, Burton guided the team to a league championship, and the following year, was named Powerade Cup Most Valuable Player.

During his professional career, Burton poured in a career-best 55 points on 16-of-20 shooting from 3-point range.
