About the Contributor
Zach Speed, Staff Writer
While his name often falls victim to cheesy clichés, it doesn’t fail to describe the best part of Zach Speed’s hockey game. The newly appointed Staples Varsity Hockey captain only started playing in 8th grade, but has worked on his game to become one of the best Wreckers out on the ice. Despite a tenure in journalism, another one of Speed’s interests, he has a difficult time picking between the two very different activities. “The hockey team is smaller and more intense,” he says. “But journalism is laid back, and the teachers really let you write about what you’re interested in.” Because he decided to fit both into his schedule during an already busy senior year, Speed’s life can be hectic. For example, for one of his Inklings’ articles last year, he was required to rewrite his article four times, despite having to deal with the standard workload of a high school junior. When asked what his favorite word was, he ironically hesitated. “Ummm… eloquence,” Speed said. “You can probably do something with that.”
