Duluth, GA - The Atlanta Gladiators announced live on the team's YouTube channel Thursday evening that the club has re-signed defenseman Dylan Carabia for the 2025-26 season.
Carabia, 29, returns to Atlanta for his fourth season with the team, having suited up for over 180 games with the team since his Gladiators debut in 2022. The 6'3", 190-pound defenseman recorded 1 goal and 5 assists for 6 points in 58 games last season with the Gladiators.

"Dylan is a big body that plays the game hard. He takes pride in doing little things like blocking shots, finishing checks and being tough to play against," said Gladiators Director of Hockey Operations and Head Coach, Matt Ginn. "Dylan is a natural leader as well, and we are looking forward to having him back for another season."
Dylan Carabia joins Andrew Jarvis, Ryan Nolan, Connor Galloway, Isak Walther, Brenden Datema, Peter Morgan, Ryley Appelt, Alex Young, Jack Robilotti, Mickey Burns, Ryan Francis, Anthony Firriolo, Ethan Scardina, Louis Boudon, and Joey Cipollone as players who have signed with the Gladiators for the 2025-26 season.
