GETTING TO KNOW ANDREA CASO
Nickname: Caso
One thing I wish people knew about me, but don't is: I have a titanium rod in my right tibia and I have no middle name.
My superstitions are: I must put on my right shin guard, sock and turf cleat before putting all three items on my left leg before competition.
My favorite professional sports team are: New York Yankees and New York Giants
My favorite class at Siena is: Any English class with Dr. D. Turner
Coach Davidson's Best Attribute is: 'today is an AWESOME day,' and 'running is a privilege!'
My best Siena Field Hockey moment has been: Scoring a game winning goal.
My favorite flavor of ice cream: I love vanilla ice cream, but it has to have chocolate syrup on top. The funny thing is I dislike chocolate ice cream!
If I had $10 million I would: First I would pay to further my education, and second, because I recently lost my grandmother to this disease, I would donate all of the rest to cancer societies in hopes that someday a cure is found.
