GRR: Eagle Men
(USA RUGBY PRESS RELEASE) OTTAWA – The Men’s Eagles kick off the final leg of their pre-Rugby World Cup 2015 tour Saturday, Aug. 22, against Canada.
In this installment of the RuggaMatrix America podcast, Alex, Pat, and Bruce look at the Pacific Nations Cup, what worked for the USA, what didn't, who played well, and who didn't.
The USA Men’s National Rugby Team leaves the friendly confines of Burlington, Vt. for Ottawa, Canada on Thursday to face Canada Saturday.
The players have been able to get a nice mix of intense training and some time off - Lake Champlain is of course right there, and the town of Burlington had its attractions, as long as the players avoided too much Ben & Jerry’s ice cream.
The USA Men’s National Team has the little matter of playing Canada this coming Saturday, and maybe, just maybe, somebody not named AJ MacGinty can get some points.
August 22 in Ottawa won’t be a cakewalk for the Eagles as they face a tough rematch with a wounded Canadian team.
