The USA Rugby South U19 Panthers have named their starting lineup in the opening round of games in the Rugby Americas North U19 championships.

Rugby Americas North is what used to be called NACRA (the North American Caribbean Rugby Association), and USA Rugby sends its South all-star team to the RAN U19, women's 10s, and Men's senior championships. The Panthers team was drawn from HS and college teams from around the region. Head Coach Mark Williams has chosen returning panther and flythalf Josh Ingles as captain.

The Panthers will kick off v. Bermuda at 6pm Eastern. The game is slated to be live-streamed here.
