Casey Lindquist
Casey became apart of the Hockey Training Center back when she was eight years old when she first began playing hockey. The Hockey Training Center helped her develop her skills, and learn about the game of hockey all through out her youth years and now into her high school years. Some of her youth hockey highlights were going to state twice with her U14a team where they placed their second year, at 3rd place. Now she is on her second year playing for the Chaska Girls Varsity Hockey Team. She has made the transition of playing forward to defense. She especially loves coming the day of the game to shoot and prepare to play, before heading off to the rink. She has also been helping at the training center for the past two years, and loves working with the hockey teams. She has also helped coached the U10 girls this previous summer, attending practices and games, and is a current mentor for the U8 team. She loves to work with all ages, and has a ton of fun giving her knowledge of shooting, stick handling, and other skills to the young players. One of the most rewarding things is to see how they progress after each visit, and witnessing, their stick handling and shooting, and agility improve. The smiles on the kids faces when they get how to do a new skill is priceless. Casey is hard working, determined, and patient, and is always willing to give each player her time and experience to benefit them on and off the ice. Casey was elected by her team mates and coaches as one of the captains for the 2011-12 Stormhawks.
