All-Region: Casey Brandon from University of Montana. Casey can step onto a field and immediately impact the outcome. He can play O-line or D-line, handler or cutter, and any position in a zone. He is always asked to guard the best player on the opposite team and consistently wins the matchup. His layout D game is second to none. Casey is also the most spirited and fun player I have had the pleasure of playing with. No matter what happens, he always makes a point to smile and lift the spirits of those around him and he always befriends the other team.
Casey’s consistently monstrous play, amazing spirit, and incredible leadership are key to Montana’s gameplan day in and day out.
I’d also like to nominate Josh Rudolph from Idaho. I know Idaho didn’t make it and they are always an underdog, but I think that Josh single handedly got them to the game-to-go. He can put a disc to any spot on the field from any distance, even upwind or against a crosswind. He is also a great defender and cuts like a beast. Josh is possibly one of the nicest and most humble players I have played against. 130 assists?! The next closest is 31… That is absolutely bonkers. There are plenty of great players in the region, but I have not seen anyone else dominate a game almost by himself like Josh does. And when his team gets down? He stays positive and creative and continues to push Red Scare to their peak.
