Player of the Year Does Not Define Jordan Burns Well before the 2017-2018 season began, I heard the name Jordan Burns over and over again. It's not rare. I usually hear about recruits from the various Colgate sports and how excited the coaching staff is. You expect that excitement since they recruited the player in the first place. So I absorbed the name but I had no idea what would transpire over the next four seasons. Jordan burst onto the scene averaging double digits as a freshmen, earning Burns Patriot League All-Rookie Honors. During his basketball journey in Hamilton, New York, Jordan picked up many more awards including the Patriot League Tournament MVP for leading the Raiders to the 2018-19 NCAA Tournament, a rare accomplishment for the Raiders. The latest Hardware for Jordan, Patriot League Player of the Year, Colgate's second Player of the Year in the last four years after going over two decades without the top honor.
