Wilson Harris breaks out as the top teenage goalscorer in the USL Championship in 2019

Swope Park Rangers striker Wilson Harris continued his stunning run of form with his eighth goal in his last nine matches during last night's 3-1 victory over Birmingham Legion FC. Harris now has 10 goals in 2019, and no other teenager has more goals than the talented 19-year-old in the USL Championship season.

Harris struck in just the seventh minute last night, converting Alexsander's cross from the left wing with a deft backheel at the near post that flew into the corner beyond the despairing dive of Matt VanOekel in the Birmingham goal.

Harris, a product of the Sporting Kansas City Academy, signed a professional contract with the Rangers midway through 2018 and has 13 goals in 36 appearances over the past two seasons.
