Biography

Jim Pierce was a two-way starter for the powerful North teams of 1971 and '72. As co-captain of the '72 team, one of the most overpowering in the school's history, the 230-pound tackle anchored an offensive line that cleared the way for a 301-point season. He was equally effective on defense, helping the tough North line to limit the opposition to 31 season-long points. For his work, Jim was recognized as a member of both the Hockomock League and Sun-Chronicle District all-star teams.
