SDS Athlete Profile – Burke Eismann
Today, The Wire shines the spotlight on Burke Eismann, a rising star and standout tight end from Frederick High School in Colorado. As a member of the Class of 2025, Burke’s journey is marked by remarkable achievements on the field and a steadfast commitment to excellence.
In a stellar season, Burke not only led his team in touchdowns but also etched his name in the school’s history books by breaking the record for the most receiving touchdowns in a single season with 14. A testament to his dedication and skill, this achievement showcases Burke’s exceptional talent as he emerged from an offseason of hard work and determination.
Reflecting on his achievements, Burke shared, “Breaking the school record for receiving touchdowns was a defining moment for me. It symbolizes the progress I’ve made from playing sparingly my sophomore year to becoming a record-breaker, especially against our town rivals. It’s a reminder that I’m not just another football player; I have the potential to achieve greatness.”
As he looks toward the offseason, Burke’s goals are straightforward but ambitious. “I want to get bigger, faster, stronger, and overall better. My focus is not just on personal improvement but also on gaining attention from college programs. Playing football at a 4-year college while pursuing a degree in either fire science or business is my vision for the future.”
Beyond the gridiron, Burke draws inspiration from a powerful source—his mother. “She has always been there, pushing me to be the best I can be. She introduced me to football and shaped the person I am today.”
On that note, his mother happened to capture an incredible moment in Eismann’s career – a 65-yard, one-handed catch for a touchdown. What began as a pass underneath, turned into a defining moment of the game due to Eismann’s vision and speed. He flashes a potential here that college recruiters should be taking note of.
When asked about advice for aspiring athletes, Burke emphasized authenticity. “Be true to yourself and who you are. Embrace what makes you happy, and don’t change your game for anyone. Continuously grow and stay true to your path.”
