Prior to attending GBN, Dylan Buckner was a graduate of Maple School in Northbrook. (Shutterstock)
NORTHBROOK, IL The community is reeling following news of the death of a local student. In emails to parents from Glenbrook North High School and Northbrook/Glenview School District 30, school officials said Dylan Buckner, 18, of Northbrook, died Thursday. He was the capitan and quarterback of the Glenbrook North High School varsity football team and someone teachers wanted to clone. It was a great pleasure knowing Dylan. It was a great pleasure to have gone into battle with him, to have gotten to languish in the hot summer sun with him, Will Erens, a classmate and fellow football player at GBN, told Patch. But he was more than a teammate. He was simple, but he was strong. He was a great leader. I lost a friend, a teammate, but the world lost a great man.
