The Tommies’ junior goaltender is the first in program history to make it onto the elite semi-finalist list for best goaltender in the country.
ST. PAUL, Minn. – St. Thomas Men's Hockey goaltender Jake Sibell was named to the semi-finalist list for the Mike Richter Award on Wednesday. Sibell is the first in program history and only this season from the Central Collegiate Hockey Association.
The Hockey Commissioners Association (HCA) has announced the semifinalists for this year's Mike Richter Award, given annually to the top goalie in men's NCAA Division I hockey since 2014. Ten goaltenders from a "Watch List" of 30 were singled out by a panel of voters across the hockey community.
Sibell is one of two goalies on the list from Minnesota (Ryan Bischel of Notre Dame from Medina, Minn.). He is also one of two from a team within the Land of 10,000 Lakes (Justen Close from the University of Minnesota).
Three finalists will be announced in early March and the winner will be announced in April during the NCAA Frozen Four in St. Paul, Minn.
