On the final point of the Division I championship match against North Kingstown, he demonstrated that he is a quick thinker as well as a feared hitter. Instead of taking a short ball and hitting it deep to a corner, the usual play, he dumped “a dink” in the middle of the NK defense for the title-winning point. He led the Rebels with 270 kills and had 50 blocks, 42 aces and 150 passes. “He complemented Sam [Gross],” coach Jackie Fagan said. “When Sam was too fired up, Casey brought us back down.”
