  • Summary

  • Casey Powell grew up in a paper mill town in the middle of nowhere, a small town boy with big dreams. His dad, Larry sold a shotgun to buy him and his brothers their first lacrosse sticks. The backyard became their sanctuary, their blank canvas. After only five years of organized lacrosse, Casey Powell set the national high school scoring record. The Orange came knocking on his door and Syracuse, legendary coach Roy Simmons Jr. found his next generational talent and he gave him the number 22, 2 digits suited only for the great ones. From the moment he stepped on campus Casey was spectacular. A four time, all American, a national champion, two time national player of the year and the school's all time leading point scorer. Just 1 of 10 players named to the all century team. That was just his first act. For the next 18 years, Casey would go on to have one of the most illustrious professional lacrosse careers, both in the MLL and the NLL. He wore the stars and stripes and he captained team USA, but he is so much more than just a player. He has taught and inspired thousands of lacrosse players. With an emphasis on a creative and innovative style with a flare for the dramatic; one that has the next generation wanting so much more. Today, he's the lead instructor of the Casey Powell Lacrosse Academy and he founded the CP world lacrosse foundation with a mission to share support and inspire lacrosse worldwide. Along with his brothers, Ryan and Mike, Casey runs Powell lacrosse company, and he founded three on three version of the game called Speed Lacrosse. His impact on the game has been and continues to be beyond profound is a player, a coach, an ambassador and a friend of the game of lacrosse. I've seen all of this unfold before my own eyes. I'm his college roommate, ESPN Paul Carcaterra, and I can't wait to hear what CP and his vast network of lacrosse friends have to share with the world of lacrosse.

    S2E2: Casey Powell v John Grant Jr.
    Sep 28 2022

    What's up everyone? On this episode I, Casey Powell, am taking it back to field with my buddy and my rival John Grant Jr.. John and I met at an All American Camp back in the day, went separate ways in college and played against eachother. We both agree, playing together as teammates is better than rivals. While I competed against my brothers, JG was on a mission to outplay his hall of fame lacrosse father! I loved getting into it with my friend JG Jr, and learning about the imprint his father and his hometown left on his game and learning how the lacrosse legacy continues in his daughter and mine! Let's explore the field!

    22 Easy is in Season 2! We are talking about life on and off the field with some of the greats and answering those burning questions. I know there is fun in scoring, but man when you play on a goalie like Blaze Riorden, he's going to make you work for it. The Chaos have a BIG game coming up this weekend, and I, Casey Powell, had an awesome conversation with goalie extraorinaire Blaze Riorden. Who will take home the ship (championship, that is)?

    "...the harder you play, the stronger the medicine, um, because you know, the energy you put into it, that's, what's being spread.That's what, that's what people are witnessing. "

    In this episode I, Casey Powell, speak with Iroquois National Team, NLL, and PLL superstar Lyle Thomspon. As a sport, we agree we want lacrosse to be more accessible and mainstream, but what happens to the history and sacredness of the game? We are talking about priceless, sacred homemade wooden sticks to what we hear coming from the International Olympic Committee (IOC). You will get it all here, 22 Easy.
