The Lexington senior has a plan for his future that is quite ambitious, but he has a really good reason for that.
On the track, the biggest difference between James Drummond this year and James Drummond the last two years is that he has stayed healthy. Injuries forced him out almost entirely during his sophomore year, and limited him to a few 400's last season. Off the track, though, there have been even bigger differences. James has a plan for his life, and he knows that plan goes through college. His focus is on using track to get where he wants to go, and he has some very powerful motivation to keep him on track, as you will see in the interview. This young man is engaging and completely open, sharing honestly about his failings and frustrations. Despite the difficulties and obstacles, though, he has a certainty and optimism about the future that you can't help but admire. I'll be honest: I don't really look at college results (I'm up to my neck in high school stuff!), but this is one man that I plan to keep tabs on for the next several years.
