Senior Spotlight: Nick Bochnovich, Penn State Mont Alto

Welcome to our Senior (and Sophomore) Spotlight series. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the PSUAC had to cancel its fall and winter sport seasons. This prevented several student-athletes from receiving a proper senior day and minimized opportunities for Player of the Week awards. In its place, we will highlight seniors from around the conference throughout the remainder of the semester. 

See more Senior Spotlight highlights on our Twitter (@psuac) and Instagram (psuac)!
