Joseph Casey graduated from Boston State College in 1969 and
finished his outstanding basketball career as the school's all-time
leader in games played (105) and rebounds (1,799) and ripped down a
school-record 17.4 boards per outing. He also holds the
season-rebounding mark with 501 caroms during the 1966-67 season
and pulled down a single-game school-record 34 rebounds in 1968.
The center starred at BSC from 1965-69, scoring 1,256 points to
rank third all-time and led his teams to a 71-35 mark for a .670
winning percentage over that span. He was named to the New England
Small College Athletic Conference All-Conference squad for the
1966-67 campaign and helped the Warriors to an appearance in the
NAIA National Championship Tournament, while posting an 18-7 mark.
As a freshman, Casey was a member of the school's 23-5 team, the
best record in school history, and as a senior, he was selected as
a co-captain for the 1968-69 Boston State team and earned the
Scholar Athlete Award.
