Define and characterize a good goalie and you will find yourself describing Jordan Burke. First, he makes saves. He flat out stops the ball and forces the opponent to make great shots. Second, he is cool and calm in the net, without allowing any frustration to show whatever the situation. He quickly forgets a goal allowed and focuses on the next play, the next shot. And third, Jordan studies and prepares himself for each opponent, understanding the strengths and tendencies of the upcoming shooters. 2007: All New England and All-Ivy selection...Led the Ivy League in saves per game (13.0)...Ranked second nationally in save percentage (.621)...Made a career high 21 saves against Dartmouth, including four in overtime, in a four-overtime game...Registered 19 saves vs. Vermont, 18 saves vs. UMBC and 17 saves against Penn...2006: Earned playing time in three games, making two saves, while allowing no goals...Secondary School Background: A graduate of The Bullis School where he lettered in lacrosse (4) and ice hockey (4)...Lacrosse team captain as a senior and three-time ice hockey captain...Named Bullis School Athlete of the Year as a senior...Washington Post second team All-Met selection in lacrosse...Two-time All-Met selection in ice hockey...two-time lacrosse team MVP...National Honor Society member...Earned the Principal's Award...Personal: The son of Glen and Michele Burke of Potomac...Has two brothers, Steven and Brandon...
