In the North Shore there are very few prospects that can play professional sports- Jack Drury is one of them. Jack Drury was born into a hockey family, his father Ted played over 9 years in the NHL and his uncle Chris was a captain for the New York Rangers. Jack finished up his USHL career with the Waterloo Blackhawks with the Anderson cup and the record for the longest point streak in USHL history at 23. Drury finished 4th in the USHL in total points and remained one of the hottest players in the league. Jack is presently attending the NHL combine and looks to get drafted somewhere in the 2nd or 3rd round of the draft.

Jack and I met our freshman year at Loyola Academy through mutual friends.

I decided to interview Jack because he had been a close friend of mine despite attending different  high schools and living in different states. Jack and I also share a passion in regards to sports. Our friendship took off my sophomore year at the Academy with Jack in our Latin class where we sat next to each other.

When Jack isn't skating and playing hockey Jack often can be seen spending time with his close friends and relatives. Jack committed to Harvard his sophomore year of high school to play hockey, following the footsteps of his father. Jack plans to major in economics at Harvard and plans to get a degree even if he is drafted during college. Jack’s Waterloo Blackhawks were upset in the Western conference semifinals by the Fargo Force. Drury’s team won the Anderson Cup which is given to the regular season champion, similar to the Presidents’ Trophy in the NHL.

I interviewed Jack to get in the mind of a top tier athlete who most likely will end up in the NHL. I have always enjoyed sports and I have always wondered what most professional athletes were like on their journey to the pros. We almost expect those that are in the pros had an easy path and were destined to play professionally. We expect those athletes to be perfect. It was gratifying seeing how humble Jack is in regards to his achievements on and off the ice.
