For Casey to get to this stage is impressive. They had a (U-18) camp a month and a half ago and Casey wasn't invited. He wasn't in the mix. He wasn't on their radar. Then they saw him play (in Orlando) and bumped him up. |
Most kids get involved (with the Olympic Development Program) at an earlier age. Casey just got involved a couple years ago. He's worked his way up the ladder (state and regional teams). This speaks to his talent. He's an immensely talented player. |
They're great kids who worked hard to get to the next level. Statistically, they don't jump out at you. But they have great character and great work ethics. |
