Scott Borek and the staff at Merrimack continued stockpiling talent for the future on Thursday evening, with Noble and Greenough center Casey Severo verbally committing to play college hockey for the Warriors.
The Pittsford, N.Y., native is a rising junior at Nobles and plays split-season hockey for the Neponset Valley River Rats. He becomes the third player with ties to Massachusetts – and fourth player overall – to commit to Merrimack in the last week.
“I committed to Merrimack because of the trust and the confidence I felt in the coaching staff along with the program being in Hockey East, which is one of the best leagues in college hockey,” Severo said.
