John F. Zulberti (January 20, 1967 to August 1, 2021) was an American lacrosse player from New York who was a four-time All-American at Syracuse University from 1986 to 1989. With the Gait brothers, Paul and Gary, and Tom Marechek, he led the Orange to the NCAA championships in 1988, a 13-8 win over Cornell, and in 1989, a 13-12 win over Johns Hopkins. He won the Jack Turnbull Award as the nation's top attackman in both of those seasons and ranks among the all-time leaders in NCAA scoring and sixth on the Syracuse scoring list. At West Genesee High School he scored 361 career points. He played professionally in the Major Indoor Lacrosse League for the Buffalo Bandits in their inaugural 1992 season, again alongside Marechek, and won a championship. He drowned in August 2021 at the age of 54.
