Toronto Maple Leafs prospect Jeremy Bracco is leaving school and reportedly heading north of the border.

The 18-year-old has decided to depart Boston College's hockey program, the school announced Wednesday.

Bracco will sign with the OHL's Kitchener Rangers, as first reported by Mike McMahon of College Hockey News. Bracco is reportedly en route to Kitchener and the deal could be signed as early as Wednesday.

The winger notched three assists in five games with the Eagles after spending the last two seasons in the U.S. National Team Development Program.

Bracco was selected 61st overall by the Maple Leafs in June's draft.
