Finalists announced for inaugural Reed Larson Award

 

In hockey, forwards and goaltenders tend to get the most attention with their gaudy offensive numbers and highlight-reel saves, respectively. Meanwhile, on the blue line are those who play tough defense, guard the front of the net and start the offensive rush up the ice. No award exists exclusively for Minnesota’s top high school defensemen. Until now.

Let’s Play Hockey is happy to announce the 12 finalists for the Reed Larson Award, an annual award that will be given to the state’s top senior boys’ high school defenseman.
