A.J. Wolford is a brick wall for Ohio's Swanton High School.


Three saves on one penalty kick?

Yes.

As seen in the video above, Swanton (Ohio) senior goalkeeper A.J. Wolford did his best Tim Howard impersonation in a game against Archbold last week.



Wolford made the initial save on a penalty kick attempt, then made a second diving save in the opposite direction and followed that up with a final save, again on the opposite side of the net. In all, there were three saves made in a span of four seconds.

Unfortunately, Swanton (5-1) lost 6-0 to Archbold (6-0-1), as Wolford finished the night with 15 saves.

Archbold is ranked No. 4 in the OSSCA poll.
