GRR: Canada
The North American qualifier series for the World Rugby Trophy kicks off at this evening at 6pm ET as USA U20s play Canada U20s in Spartanburg, SC.
Rugby Canada has announced that Stephen Aboud has been appointed as High Performance Director.
The USA Women's 15s team lost 32-11 to Canada in the Women's Rugby World Cup quarterfinals and end their tournament tied for 5th with a 1-3 record.
Once again points were hard to come by. The Eagles recycled well and worked hard, but their offensive plan did not create line breaks the way other teams, including Canada, were able to do.
USA coach Rob Cain has named his team for the Rugby World Cup 2021 quarterfinal against Canada at Waitakere Stadium on 30 October (11:30PM ET October 29 for fans in the USA).
Canada has defeated the USA 29-14 in the Women's Rugby World Cup, but both have more rugby to give.
The Eagles put in quite a brave performance and while they were led by their stars, Kate Zackary, Alev Kelter, and Hope Rogers, there were moments for others, too.
