Sophomore goaltender Spencer Knight was named a Top-3 Finalist for the Mike Richter Award on Friday along with Dryden McKay of Minnesota State and Jack LaFontaine of Minnesota.

The honor has been given annually to the top goalie in men's NCAA Division I hockey since 2014. The winner will be announced in April during the NCAA Frozen Four in Pittsburgh.
 
Knight is looking to become the second Boston College netminder to win the award and first since Thatcher Demko in 2016. Earlier this month, Knight became the first goaltender to win the Hockey East Player of the Year Award since Demko.
 
The Darien, Connecticut native was a unanimous First Team Hockey East All-Star and is 16-3-1 in net this season to rank third nationally in winning percentage (.825). Knight is a Top-10 Finalist for the Hobey Baker Award, sitting fifth in the country in save percentage (.933) and 13th in goals against average (2.13).
 
Knight and the top-seeded Eagles will face the winner of 2-seed St. Cloud State and 3-seed Boston University in the NCAA Northeast Regional Final on Sunday (March 28) at 5:30 p.m. on ESPN2 at the Times Union Center in Albany.
