The Aberdeen Wings, proud members of the North American Hockey League, are pleased to announce that goaltender Peter Thome has committed to play NCAA Division I hockey at the University of North Dakota.  Thome becomes the seventh Wings goaltender to commit to the Division I level in just over six seasons as a member of the NAHL.

"We congratulate Peter on his commitment to UND," Head Coach Francis Anzalone said.  "Peter is a driven young man who has worked hard to get to this point.  He has a very bright future, and we look forward to continuing to help him reach his potential as a goaltender, athlete and young man."

In nine appearances for the Wings so far this season, Thome has posted a 2.48 GAA and a .924 SVP.  He was named NAHL Central Division 2nd Star of the Week on September 28.
