Behind his leadership, the Blue Demons advanced to the National Invitation Tournament in 2000 after averaging 6.7 points, and leading DePaul with 80 steals and 148 assists, which rank third and 14^th in school history for a single season. Burno helped guide DePaul to the NCAA Tournament in 2001 and was named to the Conference USA All-Tournament Team. He averaged 6.7 points as the Blue Demons finished with a 21-12 overall record.

Burno helped anchor back-to-back national championship runs for St. Anthony's High School in Jersey City under head coach Bob Hurley in 1996 and 1997. Burno began his coaching career at the high school level as head coach at Marmion Academy in Chicago from 2007-2010 where he also served as a economics and physical education teacher. In his final season at Marmion Academy, he guided the Cadets to a 17-10 overall record.
