After completing his 3 year comeback...I asked him what advice he'd give others trying to overcome adversity and what's next for him?

Join us tonight on @WBZ TV News at 545pm as we tell the special story of Jack Smiley
The @EndicottMIH Sr suffered a stroke 3 years ago and on Saturday(3pm) vs @JWUMenshockey Jack will play in a game!
Below - I asked Jack what will be going thru his mind when he takes the ice
Jean was one of the best to ever do it, cared deeply about the athletes she covered, and was truly a pleasure to work alongside for so many years. She’s surely watching a game from a lawn chair somewhere, notebook in hand
Please take a minute today to remember the late, great Jean DePlacido today. We lost her exactly one year ago, and there isn't a single day that goes by that she isn't missed.
@bsp_13 Mid game dog with a wildly overpriced beer, stay in the ballpark as long as possible post game (avoid the crowds out) then a post game sausage with peppers and onions
Your 2024 Division 3 state champion Marblehead Headers, who shock top ranked Nauset, 1-0.
One of the all l-time great title runs in state history for @HeadersHockey, going from a team that started 0-6 and 2-8 to the top of the mountaintop at 17-9-1.
Leo Burdge 30 saves.
