GRR: Eagle Women
USA Women's 7s Head Coach Richie Walker has named a changed lineup for the Sydney Women's International 7s, which kicks off on Feb. 2.
Three players from the team that finished next-to-last in Dubai, Nicole Strasko, Kristine Sommer and, most notably, captain Laruen Doyle, are not going to Sydney. Kelly Griffin, speedsters Kristen Thomas, and debutante Sarah Buonopane join the squad.
March rolled in like a lion with the USA 7s in Las Vegas, followed by a new World Series tournament in Vancouver.
Both were huge successes, with Vancouver selling out all available seats - allowing them to open the upper deck at BC Place for 2017 - and Vegas continues to grow, and will even more so with the Women’s World Series USA stop moving to Sin City as well.
February began with an intense time for the USA Men’s National Team.
Having written a column on the Men’s USA 7s team that is mostly optimistic, it’s time to switch teams, and switch tone.
BÉZIERS, France - France exploded for 26 points in the final 50 minutes to beat the USA 36-10 in a women's test match Tuesday at Stade de le Méditerranée.
This was the first of two test matches between the two teams.
