New Canaan High placekicker Peter Swindell's trick kick during a post-practice wrap-up made Yahoo Sport's Prep Rally column Friday, and it's easy to see why.
According to author Cameron Smith:
"By Prep Rally's view of the NFHS rule book and its analysis of scoring plays (you can see the entire rule book right here), the kick in a game situation could be a legal drop kick (if Swindell intentionally fumbled a snap on a punt to himself) or a legal placekick. It would be nuts for New Canaan to try, but if Swindell pulled it off in a game, it would count so long as the official didn't whistle the ball dead before he got his foot to it."
Check out the video above for the shot. That's some real talent.
