The West Chester Wolves are proud to announce that five players from their Premier team have been called up to the NCDC Wolves for their game against the Boston Dogs. The game is set for Thursday at 2 PM at the Wolves’ home arena, PNY Sports Arena.
This call-up highlights the success of the Wolves’ developmental program and the talent within their Premier roster. NCDC Head Coach and General Manager R.C. Lyke praised the Wolves' developmental system, saying, “This is an excellent chance for us to evaluate our developmental system in action and demonstrate how the USPHL advances players. Our Premier team is filled with talented individuals, and we’re excited to see their progress and development on the ice.”
Aidan Urie has been a standout playmaker for the Premier team this season, tallying 8 goals and 23 assists in 25 games. His vision and ability to find teammates in scoring positions have made him a key offensive driver for the Wolves. Urie’s hockey IQ and playmaking skills will be a valuable addition to the NCDC roster as they face off against a competitive Boston Dogs team.
Andrew Farley, the Premier team captain, has been a dependable presence for his team this season. In 26 games, he has recorded 4 goals and 8 assists, showcasing his ability to contribute offensively while maintaining strong defensive play. Farley’s quick decision-making and positional awareness make him effective in all three zones, and his versatility adds depth to the NCDC Wolves’ roster. With 99 career USPHL Premier games under his belt, Farley’s experience and work ethic position him well for success at the next level.
Braydon Webster’s agility and vision make him a dynamic presence on both ends of the ice. With 9 goals and 16 assists in 25 games, he has established himself as a reliable offensive contributor from the blue line. His three game-winning goals this season underscore his knack for stepping up in crucial moments, while his disciplined play, evident in just 12 penalty minutes, reflects his composed and steady demeanor.
Finn McGolrick, a dependable and versatile defenseman, has posted 2 goals and 9 assists over 27 games this season. With a strong ability to transition the puck out of the defensive zone and contribute offensively, McGolrick is a well-rounded player prepared for the demands of the NCDC level. His poise under pressure will be a valuable asset in Thursday’s matchup as he earns his second call-up of the season.
Nathan Lavallee, a skilled and hard-working center, has recorded 5 goals and 7 assists over 28 games this season for the West Chester Wolves Premier team. Standing at 6'2" and weighing 185 lbs, the Calgary, AB native uses his size and strong two-way play to make an impact at both ends of the ice. Lavallee’s consistent effort has earned him a well-deserved call-up to the Wolves NCDC roster, where he will look to showcase his talent at the next level.
Head Coach Brian Leonard expressed his excitement for the players advancing to the NCDC level. "The Premier team has shown they can be a formidable force in the Atlantic Division as we push toward the playoffs, and these players have been central to our success. I’m excited for them to join us at the NCDC level and look forward to coaching them on Thursday," said Leonard.
