Nathan Casas
Cottage Grove, Minn.
Class of 2022


Why did you chose Central?

I chose Central because I wanted to have a fresh start and be at a place where the faculty would try to cater to my needs as a student.

Favorite professor and why? 

My favorite professor is Professor Schlerman because she always teaches the class with high energy even when the class is at 8am.

What is your major and why did you chose it?

I am majoring in accounting because I had always grown up watching my mom do accounting work and my passion for numbers together made me want to become an accountant. 

Besides athletics, what else are you involved in on campus?

I have been involved with OLAS.

Who are your go-to musical artists?

I would have to say CNCO, Mark Anthony, Luis Fonsi, and Daddy Yankee. 

Sporting event you’d love to attend

I would love to attend a Central football game when soccer does not have anything to do.

Favorite Disney character

My favorite Disney character is Beast from Beauty and the Beast.

How many pairs of shoes do you own?

I own about 9 pairs of shoes which include 2 running shoes, 2 pairs of soccer shoes, 2 pairs of sandals, and a pair of running shoes, a pair of casual footwear, and winter boots.

What song best describes your work ethic?

The song that best describes my work ethic is Hey DJ by CNCO.

Favorite TV Show

My favorite TV show is The Flash since I am a DC universe fan. 

What’s it like to play for Coach Laidlaw?

Playing for Coach Laidlaw has been an eye opener for me. If there is anything that happens I know that I can talk to him wholeheartedly and he will understand and help in whatever way he can. 

What’s your favorite part about being a member of the Central men’s soccer team? 

My favorite part about being a member of the Central men’s soccer team is that it feels as though we have created a pack and bond that will not be broken by anything. 

What do you hope to be doing 10 years from now?

I hope to be having my job as an accountant and making enough money to be self-sufficient in a house.

Favorite food from Central Market

My favorite food from Central Market is Mongolian Buffet Fridays

Bucket list

I want to visit all the continents except Antarctica. I want to go Skydiving. I want to go bungee jumping.
