October 23, 2023 | Hockey
AMHERST, Mass. – No. 19 University of Massachusetts hockey senior defenseman Aaron Bohlinger and freshman goaltender Michael Hrabal have been selected as Hockey East Army ROTC Defender of the Week and Stop It Goaltending Goaltender of the Week, the conference announced on Monday. The duo helped the Minutemen sweep #19/20 Minnesota State on the road last weekend with a 6-3 win on Friday and a 1-0 shutout on Saturday.
Bohlinger collected three assists and was +1 with seven blocks over the two-game set against the Mavericks. The Walden, New York native had a pair of assists in Friday's contest with one coming on the first goal of the game and the other on a power play late that put UMass up 5-3, while also blocking three shots. On Saturday, Bohlinger helped lead a UMass defense the shutout win with four blocked shots and picked up the primary assist on the game's only tally. He also helped UMass' penalty kill go a perfect 14-for-14 on the weekend.
Hrabal started both games in net for the Minutemen and posted a 1.51 goals-against average and a .952 save percentage with two wins on the weekend. The Prague, Czechia, native made 28 saves on Friday and followed up by stopping all 32 he faced on Saturday in his first career shutout.
UMass will be back in action this Friday, October 27, when the squad will open Hockey East play at No. 9 Boston University at 7 p.m. at Agganis Arena in Boston.
