MADISON, WI - The Madison Capitols, a member of the United States Hockey League, picked 17 players - 10 forwards, six defensemen, and one goaltender - in Phase II of the 2016 USHL Draft on Tuesday.

The Capitols began Phase II of the Draft by picking Blaine, Minnesota native right wing Luke Notermann in the first round. The 6-foot-1, 159-pound forward was chosen fourth overall and recorded 78 points (28-50=78) and 20 penalty minutes in 25 games with the Blaine High School Bengals during the 2015-16 season.

Madison drafted right wing Vincent de Mey, a native of Los Angeles, California, in the first round, tenth overall. The forward collected 57 points (32-25=57) and 26 penalty minutes in 43 games with Shattuck-St. Mary's Prep School.

The Capitols completed their 45-man roster through 13-rounds of the Phase II Draft.

"We had a very successful draft this year, and have brought in some really good hockey players for our Capitols team," said Capitols Chairman Ryan Suter. "We look forward to seeing them in action at camp in June, and suited up for Madison in the Fall!"

Madison drafted five Wisconsin natives - forward Noah Weber of Sayner in the fourth round, 55th overall; defenseman Alec Semandel of Waunakee in the fourth round, 58th overall; goaltender Joey Lamoreaux of Shorewood in the sixth round, 89th overall; forward Anthony Callin of Middleton in the ninth round, 138th overall; and defenseman Vincent Weis of Madison in the 13th round, 202nd overall.

Semandel and Callin are joined by their AAA Madison Capitols U18 teammate center Kasey Fitzjerrells (tenth round, 154th overall) as USHL Capitols draft picks. Weis will be joining the Capitols from Madison Edgewood High School.

Madison also drafted defenseman Andong Song, who is also the first-ever Chinese-born NHL Draft pick. Song was drafted by the New York Islanders in the sixth round, 172nd overall in the 2015 NHL Draft. The Capitols drafted Song in the 11th round, 170th overall.
