Today I’m talking to Gonzaga head coach Casey O’Neil who looks to lead the Purple Eagles to their 8th straight Washington Catholic Athletic Conference championship this season. Since he took over the program in 2008, O’Neil has won 15 games and compiled a 90-7 conference record. Gonzaga is a consistent Top 15, if not Top 10, national team. He’s was the Washington Post All-Met Coach of the Year in 2010 and WCAC Coach of the Year in 2010, 11 and 12. Casey is a Gonzaga graduate and won a WCAC title as a player in 1993. He played lacrosse, basketball and football with the Purple Eagles and went on to play D-I lacrosse at Lehigh where he won a Patriot League title in 1999. Of course, I talked with him about his team outlook and how the WCAC looks to be impacted by Kevin Giblin’s arrival, but we also take a deeper look into what has made O’Neil such a terrific leader and some of the advice and habits that’s helped him along the way.
