As part of a new podcast, Inside Westchester Soccer, you will get to know the faces and the stories of our club, produced by Kai Visions and hosted by Steven Padernacht.
First up, Daniel Burko. Burko, a forward from Norway whose journey has taken him from Europe to the US college game. He has had stops at Syracuse and Hofstra, and now here to the Westchester Soccer Club. Daniel has built a strong reputation as an attacking player with size, presence and the ability to make an impact in big moments.
