One would be hard-pressed to find a Terrier athlete who has received more honors for athletic accomplishments than Chris Drury.

He was the winning pitcher on the Trumbull, Connecticut, Little League team that won the 1989 Little League World Series. As a freshman at BU, he was on the winning NCAA Division I national championship team. As a senior, he was named First Team All-American for the second straight year and became the Terriers' only recipient of the Hobey Baker Award, at the time, as college hockey's player of the year. 

After graduating, Chris stepped in to a regular role in the NHL with the Colorado Avalanche and was voted Rookie of the Year. Then, just two years into the league, he was on the Avalanche team that won the Stanley Cup.

If anyone needed a wing in his house for his countless awards, it would be Chris Drury. If anyone would never build a wing on his house for his countless awards, it would be Chris Drury for there is no person more humble than Chris Drury.

"He has always been a great representative of our university because of what type of person he is," said then-head coach Jack Parker. "His character and competitive spirit made him so special. We haven't had too many players who had the package of skill, competitiveness and character that Chris possessed."

With this combination, Drury amassed some impressive totals during his four-year career. He played 155 games and scored 113 goals and added 100 assists for 213 points for an average of 1.4 points per game. He held the school record for career goals, while ranking third in total points and tied for 11th in career assists at the time of his induction.

What is equally significant is how the team did during his four-year career. From the 1994-95 season through 1997-98, the Terriers compiled an overall record of 115-30-14 for a .767 winning percentage. They won four Beanpots, four Hockey East regular-season titles, two Hockey East tournament titles, two in-season tournaments and one NCAA title.

"He is a great addition to the Hall of Fame not just because of his athletic accomplishments but because of the quality person he is," said Parker.
