Career

Casey first came to hurling prominence at juvenile and underage levels with the Eoghan Ruadh, Dungannon club in Dungannon. He eventually progressed onto the club's senior team and has been involved in four Tyrone SHC title-winning teams.[2] Casey made his first appearance on the inter-county scene when he was selected for the Tyrone under-16 hurling team. An All-Ireland medal winner in this grade, he later won an All-Ireland medal as a member of the Tyrone minor team. Casey subsequently joined the under-21 team before making his senior debut during the 2012 National League. He became a regular member of the starting fifteen and has since won Nicky Rackard Cup and Lory Meagher Cup titles.[3][4]
