BC's Knight Makes U.S. World Junior Team


Spencer Knight is the lone current Boston College Eagle on this year's U.S. National Junior Team Roster. The group will compete in the 2020 World Junior Championship in the Czech Republic starting Dec. 26.

In all, 14 NCAA different schools are represented on this year's roster for the U.S., which finished runner-up to Finland at the WJC a year ago in Vancouver after falling by a 3-2 count in the gold medal game.

Knight has fashioned an 11-4-0 record with a 1.73 goals-against average, a .940 save percentage, and four shutouts so far for the No. 5 Eagles. Also in this year's American lineup is Oliver Wahlstrom (Boston College), who left BC after recording 17 points last season as a freshman and is now skating for Bridgeport (AHL).

Jacob Bernard-Docker (North Dakota) was the lone NCAA player selected for Team Canada's World Junior squad this year.
