The USA team trained during Scotland’s 45-10 victory over Japan on Wednesday, so the players didn’t get to watch a game between two of the teams they are still to play.

In this second week of the Fall DI College Rankings, six ACRC teams are in the Top 10.
The West DIA Conference will kick off this coming weekend with Wyoming at New Mexico and Utah at Colorado State.
Last year, Iowa State and Northern Iowa kicked off the DI Midwest season with a single-digit decision, which went to longtime regional champ UNI. On Saturday, the Cyclones more than closed the gap and overcame Northern Iowa 36-5.
The Utah Youth Rugby Fall 7s kicked off with Herriman Gold winning the first tournament and Wasatch Murray also showing well.
Wasatch Murray beat Herriman Blue and TC Fusion, to go 2-0 in their Pool, which is still waiting for a fourth team, while Herriman Gold defeated Portneuf, United, and Kau Toa to go 3-0 in their pool.
