[edit] Career

[edit] College and Amateur

Burke attended Loyola University Maryland, playing two seasons of college soccer. In 1997, he left college early to pursue a professional career, spending time on trial with Deportivo Cali in Colombia and Nottingham Forest in England, but neither offered him a contract and he returned to the United States in 1998.

[edit] Professional

Burke began his professional career in 1998 when he signed with the Jacksonville Cyclones of the USISL. Late in the season, the Cyclones traded him to the Charleston Battery and Burke was named the 1998 USL A-League Rookie of the Year.

Burke was drafted in the fourth round (41st overall) in the 2000 MLS SuperDraft by D.C. United[1]. He played seven games for United before being released on June 2, 2000. He then signed with the Dallas Burn on June 15, and played two games in Dallas before being released on June 30.

Burke signed with the Richmond Kickers the next day and has remained with that team since then, playing over 200 games and scoring over 25 goals during his tenure. Burke earned Supporter’s Choice MVP honors in 2005, garnered the MVP award of the USL2 Championship game in 2006, was the USL2 Most Valuable Player and was named Kickers' captain in 2007, was a USL-2 MVP Finalist and All-League First Team midfielder in 2009, and led the Kickers to his second USL2 championship in 2009[2].
