At one point in the Dom Amore column Casparius talks very positively about the work ethic he encountered when he first came into contact with the players on the team: >A year ago, certain he no longer belonged at North Carolina, Casparius arrived on the UConn campus, walked into the weight room a few hours before the Huskies were about to leave for the NCAA Regional in Oklahoma, and saw the entire team working. “You would have thought they were four games in, not 50 games into the season,” he says. “That environment is what I was looking for.”< Also in the column, Casparius gives a great amount of credit to the UConn coaching staff for his development as a player during his time in Storrs: >“It’s a pretty cool feeling,” Casparius says. “It’s one more obstacle to overcome. I can either go back to UConn and start my redshirt junior year, which I’d be extremely excited for, or sign a professional contract somewhere down the road this summer. So it’s all exciting. There’s nothing to be anxious about over the circumstances. In terms of my development as a baseball player up to now, I give all my credit to the UConn coaching staff. Things really turned once I stepped on UConn’s campus. Coming back to Connecticut was probably the best decision I ever made.”< [/QUOTE]
