TORONTO – 13-year-old Kyler Francis of the Jr. Swarm Bantam team recorded arguably one of the best goals in the history of the Jr. NLL Tournament on Saturday, August 25. After dodging several defenders in transition, Francis released a one-handed, behind-the-back shot that caught his opposing goalie by complete surprise. The goal earned No. 1 play honors on SportsCenter’s Top 10 Plays later that evening. Francis would help lead the Jr. Swarm to a 9-7 victory against the Jr. Buffalo Bandits.
