Faribault’s Bohner a Goalie of Year Semifinalist

Let's Play Hockey magazine has released the 10 semifinalists for the 2020 Let's Play Hockey Minnesota high school girls hockey Senior Goalie of the Year.  Faribault Falcons senior Mikayla Bohner is among those chosen.

Bohner is among the top goalies in each statistical category for goalies.  She has 16 of Faribault's 18 victories in net, ranks 6th in the state in save percentage .937 and is 10th in goals against average 1.60.

Bohner has told KDHL she would love to play hockey in college but is unsure if that will happen because studies will be her focus at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Mn. where she will pursue her dream to be a music teacher.
