Playmaking reserve Kyle Casteel leads unbeaten Butler boys basketball to win vs Freeport

BUFFALO TWP — Butler boys basketball continues to learn something with each win this season.

This time, it was what to expect from backup guard Kyle Casteel when thrust into extra minutes.

Casteel provided a steadying presence and crisp playmaking as the team ran to a 4-0 start to the season with Saturday’s 78-48 win in the Freeport Tip-Off Tournament over the host Yellowjackets at Freeport Middle School.

Casteel is typically one of the first reserves off the bench for the Golden Tornado, but Saturday he was asked for more after dynamic wing Stainton Forbes left midway through the second quarter with a leg injury he suffered landing hard on his side following the second of two thunderous dunks.
