Van-Far's Kasey Gatson will be the first to admit she's got a competitive streak, both as a point guard and student. With 5 valedictorians and a cousin who starred for Mizzou women's hoops in her family tree, Kasey is undoubtedly a dual threat. And having played the game for so many years, Kasey has now taken  to teaching fundamentals and important life lessons to kids along the way.
