Hall of Fame
One of the most dominant men's basketball players in New England during the 1990's, Alex Butler represented Rhode Island College on the All-America teams in 1996 and 1997. He became the first Little East men's basketball player to earn three conference-sponsored major awards during his career, receiving the Player of the Year Award (1996, 1997) and Rookie of the Year Award in 1994.
The three-time first-team All-Little East selection is just one of three Anchormen to produce 2,000-career points, ranking second in program history with 2,398. Highly decorated, Butler earned the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Robbins Scholar-Athlete honors in 1996 and 1997, while also accepting the John E. Hetherman Award, signifying him as Rhode Island College's top male senior athlete, in 1998. In 2011, he was the top-vote getter among the Little East Men's Basketball 25th Anniversary Team members.
