joins South Salem for her senior year. The rival transfer is a two-way playmaker and excellent ball-handler with a motor. She gets her team into its offense and consistently creates for her teammates. She has a quick first step, is shifty in the lane, and can finish inside with a floater or scoop layup. She can also hit from three. Casas earned All-Conference First Team and Defensive Player of the Year honors from her performance at West Salem as a junior. She’s on course to hit 1000 career points.

The miniature-but-mighty former West Salem standout will take her talents across town to South Salem this season, and Saxons coach Adrian Lewis is excited. Lewis said Casas “never seems to get tired,” which seems like a necessary quality for a player with her stature and on-court responsibilities. On offense, she demonstrates a good first step, tight handle, fearless three-point range and the motor to rebound her own misses. Her floor general abilities are most apparent in transition where she makes zippy get-ahead passes. She displays the same court vision on defense and excels when deployed as a back-line rover in a zone press. Her nose for the ball led her to swipe 2.6 steals a game last year en route to a conference defensive player of the year award.

is small but mighty. In the first game against Barlow she led all scorers with 15 points, consistently beating defenders on the dribble and finding lanes to the basket for a scoop layup or swish floater in the key. She contributed one 3-pointer in each game. Casas finds the cheeky bounce pass to beat taller defenders. She’s also a menace on defense, picking up players full-court and beating them to their spot. In the final, Casas struggled early against defending champion South Medford’s full-court press and zone defense with 5 turnovers in the first half. But that’s to be expected against a top team early in the season. Don’t sleep on Casas or West Salem.
