Gabe Casey, who won his first cap for Canada against Tonga on Monday, completed an eventful week when he was taken in the first round of the Major League Rugby collegiate draft.
The University of Victoria fly half/fullback went 13th overall to the MLR champion New England Free Jacks in Thursday night's three-round draft.
The six-foot-three, 205-pounder made his senior debut for Canada, coming off the bench in a 36-12 loss to Tonga in Nuku'alofa. A native of Ottawa, Casey has also represented Canada at two World Rugby Under-20 Trophy tournaments and was with Canada ‘A’ last fall at the Americas Rugby Trophy.
