Vegas prospect Kedra signs with Thunderbirds

by Scott Ludwig

Another local has committed to the Las Vegas Thunderbirds for the 2019-20 WSHL season. Defenseman Sean Kedra has grown up in the Las Vegas minor hockey system, previously as a member of the Nevada Storm. In 2018-19 Kedra was a member of the Junior Golden Knights U16 team that captured the USA Hockey Tier II national championship in April.

Head coach Dave Hyrsky is happy to add another talented Las Vegas player saying, "Sean is another local who brings more depth to our defense. Sean plays with a lot of heart and character and enjoys the physical part of the game. His skating is a great asset. We look forward to helping Sean round out his game and continue to develop as a player."


Las Vegas Thunderbirds are preparing for their first season competing in the Western States Hockey League. Tryouts are scheduled for September 12-15 at SoBe Ice Arena. Players may register for tryouts here.
