DANVERS (Podcast) The stories that St. John’s Prep football coach Brian St. Pierre shares in this podcast span his life’s experiences in football. Having played in high school, Division One college football, and the National Football League, St. Pierre describes in detail the biggest moments in his career, as well as the struggles that are associated with always trying to excel at the highest levels. His St. John’s Prep football team won the 2022 MIAA D1 State Title, the school’s 6th football championship. Quarterback St. Pierre led Boston College to one of their most successful stretches ever in school history. In 2003 he was drafted in the 5th round of the NFL draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers. The podcast also provides background on the NFL draft, his transition to the NFL, and then eventually back to St. John’s Prep.
