Burke is a captain and<br />
major contributor for the<br />
Glenbrook North boys<br />
hockey team.<br />
When and why did<br />
you start playing<br />
hockey?<br />
I started playing hockey<br />
when I was 5. My dad<br />
liked hockey and wanted<br />
me to start.<br />
What do you like most<br />
about the sport?<br />
I like how fast it is and<br />
how physical and intense it<br />
can be. I also like the certain<br />
toughness to it.<br />
Do you have any<br />
superstitions before a<br />
game?<br />
I just get dressed the<br />
same way every time, I<br />
stretch the same way every<br />
time.<br />
What is your favorite<br />
sports moment?<br />
Probably winning the<br />
Loyola tournament last<br />
year was a lot of fun. We<br />
beat St. Viator in a close<br />
game and then beat Loyola<br />
in the championship.<br />
What would you do if<br />
you won the lottery?<br />
I would probably spend<br />
a good amount of it right<br />
away and then save some<br />
for the future.<br />
If you could be any<br />
superhero, what super<br />
power would you<br />
want?<br />
I would want to fly because<br />
then I could go anywhere.<br />
If you could play any<br />
other sport, what<br />
sport would it be?<br />
I would play football.<br />
I used to play but had to<br />
quit heading into freshman<br />
year.<br />
What is your favorite<br />
area restaurant?<br />
I like Little Louie’s a lot.<br />
I get the chicken avocado<br />
wrap.<br />
What is one thing on<br />
your bucket list?<br />
I want to win a state<br />
championship.<br />
If you could be any<br />
animal, which animal<br />
would you be?<br />
I would be a jaguar because<br />
they’re stealthy, fast<br />
and powerful.<br />
