Sean Crawford looks to break into the lineup this season as a combo guard who can contribute both offensively and defensively this year. He has long-range shooting ability which will make him a three-point threat from day one. He also plays solid defense and can handle the ball in pressure situations. His skills could help him challenge for playing time early in the season.

Before Fairfield
Crawford comes to Fairfield after a successful career at Notre Dame Prep in Laurelton, N.Y. He emerged as one of the team's top scorers over his last two seasons, netting 12 points per game as a junior before raising his scoring average to 18.5 points as a senior. He tallied a career-high 35 points against Poughkeepsie High School during his final season. Crawford showed his range as a shooter when he netted eight three pointers in a game on three separate occasions. One of those efforts came in a state playoff game, which set a tournament record. He enjoyed a great deal of success at Notre Dame Prep, helping the team capture the 2006-07 National Prep Championship. Individually, Crawford was lauded for his play with a spot on the New York Daily News All-Queens team, as well as a berth to the Queens Courier first team.
