ABOUT DEWEY BURKE

In his first season at Carolina, Burke played in 11 games for a team that exceeded all preseason expectations, coming in second in the ACC and advancing to the second round of the NCAA tournament.  The 2005-2006 team had a memorable victory in the final regular season game, winning at archrival Duke on the senior night for JJ Redick.  At the end of the season Dewey's hard work and contributions were rewarded with the Foy Roberson Award as the Most Inspirational Player as voted on by the coaches and players.

In the 2006-07 season, Dewey played in 21 games for the Tar Heels' team that went 33 and 6, were the ACC Regular Season and Tournament Champions, were ranked #1 in the country for several weeks, were seeded #1 in the East regional and eventually made it to the NCAA Elite Eight, losing in overtime to Georgetown. Through a promotion with the fast-food company Bojangles, when UNC scored over 100 points in a home game, everyone with a ticket stub could go for two sausage biscuits for $1. Burke put the Tar Heels over 100 on three different occasions, and he will always affectionately be remembered as "Biscuits." He started in the final home game of the year against arch-rival Duke in the nationally televised game that clinched the ACC Regular Season title. Once again he received the Foy Roberson Award, one of only seven players in North Carolina history to win the award twice.

Burke graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in May, 2007 with a Bachelor of Arts degree for his double major in Management and Economics. From his experience as a Tar Heel Dewey knows what is required to take your game to the next level - offensively, defensively, emotionally and physically. The knowledge that he can share comes directly from the Carolina Family and the coaching and playing philosophies of Dean Smith and Roy Williams: two of the most successful coaches in basketball history and both members of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
