The Kelowna Rockets signed their second round pick from the 2024 WHL Prospects Draft on Tuesday, Sept. 3.
Fifteen-year-old forward Nathan Cole signed his WHL Scholarship and Development Agreement with a team, which gives players a post-secondary scholarship for every year they play in the WHL.
"It's a huge honour to sign with the Kelowna Rockets," said Cole. "I can't wait to continue my hockey career in this beautiful city."
"Nathan is an exciting player that is tenacious and competitive," said Rockets assist general manager Curtis Hamilton. "We look forward to watching him progress this season."
The Rockets open their preseason on Friday, Sept. 6 against the Kamloops Blazers at the Sandman Centre. The next night, the two teams play in Kelowna at Prospera Place.
