Prince George, B.C. - With their third round selection (65th overall) the Prince George Cougars are pleased to select right winger Tyler Ho (North Vancouver, B.C.).

Ho stands 5'11", weighs 185 pounds and was a strong contributor to the North Shore Winter Club's 2015 Western Canadian Bantam AAA Championship. In 64 games, Ho scored 30 goals and added 57 assists for 87 points. He added 37 penalty minutes.

"We like everything about Tyler Ho's game," said Prince George Cougars Scouting Director, Bob Simmonds. "He's a very skilled forward with a hard, accurate shot and he does not back down from physical play."

Ho is the second forward and the third consecutive selection picked by the Cougars today from the North Shore Winter Club. He joins forward Jackson Leppard (first round, eighth overall) and defenceman Jonas Harkins (second round, 28th overall).

For a third straight season, the Cougars have selected a forward in the third round of the draft. Other recent third round forward picks include: Ethan O'Rourke (2014 - Penticton, B.C.) and Kolby Johnson (2013 - Rosetown, SK).

The Prince George Cougars are scheduled to make their next selection in the sixth round (113th overall).
