Watch "How To Become An Accurate Shooter with Coach Kasemeyer over on the First Class Lacrosse YouTube Channel: https://youtu.be/33uK-JiLgj8?si=8bOaDN5ruS5ziJ5y

Deemer welcomes Torre Kasemeyer to the podcast. Torre and Deemer go back, first discussing a 17-year relationship, beginning after a Loyola–Calvert Hall championship loss when MIAA restrictions initially prevented them from training together. Kasemeyer describes joining Calvert Hall in 1997, launching Got Skillz Lacrosse around 2002 with help from Sean Burke, and developing a teaching style rooted in work ethic, competitiveness, resilience, and helping players reach their potential. He explains how playing with Mount Washington’s star-studded club team (including the Gait brothers and others) shaped his standards, and highlights training elite shooters like Ryan Brown, whom he calls the best lacrosse ball shooter ever. He credits Dave Huntley’s influence on principles, teammate culture, and “honest” fundamentals like shot selection and getting to high-value scoring areas, emphasizing open-mindedness, individualized coaching, analogies, and protecting reputation and relationships.
