CHULA VISTA, Calif. (USA Rugby provided the bulk of this article) – USA Men’s 7s Coach Mike Friday has made very few changes to the team that won the London 7s May 17 as he named his squad to compete in the 2015 NACRA 7s in Cary, NC.
Friday has named a squad of 13 players for the tournament, which will decide the North American qualifier for the 2016 Olympic Games.
The schedule for the North American Caribbean Rugby Association (NACRA) 7s championships in Cary, NC has been released.
The USA Men’s 7s team in camp in the OTC will be whittled down to a squad of 12 for the NACRA 7s
That 12 won’t be much difference from the 12 that won the London 7s, but there could be a few changes.
