Burk, who coached Lakeville South the past six seasons, replaces Steve Walsh. Walsh, who coached the Raiders the past three seasons, will remain at Cretin-Derham Hall in its Advancement Office.

“Coach Burk brings a winning pedigree to CDH with a wealth of knowledge, leadership and a strong commitment to student-athletes' development both on and off the field,” the school said in a news release.
