While in college, he set four American records: two in the 200-meter individual medley and two in the 400-meter individual medley, and was a four-time NCAA champion in the same two events in 1993 and 1994. Burgess received twelve All-American honors as a Gator swimmer. He graduated from the University of Florida with a bachelor's degree in economics in 1994.

He represented the United States in the 1992 and 1996 Olympic Games.
