Minnesota Swarm News Release
SAINT PAUL, Minn. - The National Lacrosse League's (NLL) Minnesota Swarm (5-7) and Philadelphia Wings (5-6) were featured on SportsCenter's Top 10 Plays on Friday, March 29.
The No. 1 Play of the Night came midway into the 1st Quarter when Swarm forward Callum Crawford launched a shot toward Wings goalie Angus Dineley with the Minnesota leading 2-0. The ball then snuck past Dineley, and appeared to have rolled into the net, however Wings defenseman Brett Manney stopped the ball from crossing the line with a diving save.
