Penticton Vees forward Tyson Jost has opted for college over the Western Hockey League.
The highly recruited Jost has committed to the University of North Dakota for the 2016-17 season.
Jost's WHL rights are held by the Everett Silvertips who selected the Kelowna native with the seventh pick in the 2013 Bantam Draft.
He chose to play with the BCHL's Vees last season.
Jost, 17, will captain the Vees in the 2015-16 season before heading to Grand Forks, North Dakota next fall.
He was named one of the top players to watch for the 2016 NHL Draft by NHL Central Scouting and his commitment comes on the heels of winning a gold medal with Team Canada at the Ivan Hlinka Memorial Cup last week in the Czech Republic.
In his rookie season with the Vees Jost finished fourth in team scoring with 23 goals and 45 points in 46 games. The 23 goals were tied for a team best. Jost’s first season in the BCHL earned him a spot on the BCHL All-Rookie team.
He also impressed in the postseason, scoring a team high 10 goals in the Vees run to a BCHL Fred Page Cup Championship.
Jost is the fourth player on the Vees’ roster committed to UND. The other three are returning defenceman Gabe Bast, defenceman Colton Poolman and forward Dixon Bowen.
