(St. Leon, Ind.) - East Central High School senior Casey McQueen is the latest tri-state area offensive lineman to make a college commitment.

McQueen announced Thursday afternoon via Twitter that he will be continuing his academic and athletic career at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.

The Trojans' star was selected to the IFCA Class 4A Senior All-State Team, EIAC All-Conference Team, and the IFCA Region 10 Team.

At left tackle, McQueen played a pivotal role in the success of the Trojans rushing attack that totaled 2,768 yards and 42 touchdowns in 2021.

It has been a good 24 hours or so for tri-state area offensive linemen. Lawrenceburg's Braydon Watkins and Harrison's Zach Halusek have also announced where they will play collegiately.

Excited to continue my academic career and football career at @RoseHulman Thank you to all the coaches that helped me get here. @Coach_Fries @CoachSokolRHIT @Mr_Meiners @ECTrojanSports pic.twitter.com/SRwp3uvruX
