GRR: Eagle Women
The USA Women's U23 team were beaten quite convincingly in their second game with Canada's U23s and that result is a bit of a wakeup call.
While GRR only a week ago touted this two-game series as a coming-out party for a talented group of young USA players, it turned out more to be a celebration for Canada. The USA, it seems, has work to do.
In a game that perhaps ended predictably but was a shocking turnabout for about 60 minutes, the USA Women's 15s team lost 39-17 to the New Zealand Black Ferns.
The USA women's 15s team caps off their Pacific Four run Friday at 4PM against New Zealand and they know it's going to be a tough ask.
With three international 15s competitions going on right now here's a look at how the USA's representative sides are fairing, with results and standings.
