MADISON, WI - The Madison Capitols, a member of the United States Hockey League, announced goaltender Dryden McKay has committed to College of Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts.

McKay, 18, joined the Capitols at the start of the 2016-17 season from the Green Bay Gamblers. The 5-foot-11, 161-pound native of Downers Grove, Illinois has played in parts of three games with Madison this season.

"I'm really excited about the opportunity to get a top notch education from a great university, and also play for a great team and coaching staff," explained McKay. "I am excited for the future and becoming a Crusader."

McKay has a 2-0-0-0 record, a 2.00 goals-against-average, and a .928 save percentage in 150 minutes of play over three games. He has made 64 saves on 69 shots. McKay played in one game with the Gamblers during the 2015-16 season.

"I'm really happy for Dryden on his committing to Holy Cross," said Capitols' Head Coach and General Manager Garrett Suter. "He's a great kid who always shows up to the rink ready to compete in both practice and games which pushes everyone else around him to get better as well. He's been a great teammate who's stepped up in both his starts to earn our team the wins in both games, and I'm sure there are going to be plenty more wins to come for him this season."

Fans can join McKay and the rest of the Capitols for their rematch with the Bloomington Thunder at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum at 7:05 p.m. on Friday, November 4. It will also be Ladies Night! The first 100 woman to Friday game will receive a goodie bag, and they can go shopping on the concourse! Season tickets, 10-Game Pick 'Em packages, Flex Packs, and Group tickets are now available!
