The USA Women's 7s team is on the verge of qualifying for the 2016 Olympic Games after sweeping their Pool A games in the Amsterdam 7s Friday.
USA 7s Men’s Head Coach Mike Friday said he will likely invite a couple of regular 15s Eagles in the camp for the NACRA 7s in Cary, NC June 13-14.
Two star USA age-grade players have been awarded Graham Downes scholarships to train at a rugby academy in South Africa.
Hanco Germishuys and Brian Nault will spend a month at the Sharks Academy in Durban, South Africa courtesy of the scholarship fund named after the former USA and OMBAC prop.
Robin Reid, who owns Aircraft Charter Solutions, which is a sponsor of Goff Rugby Report and also of the High School All Americans, has released a statement about the High School All Americans 2015 season:
The success of the USA Men’s 7s team from this year over last can be seen in the World Series placement (6th instead of 13th), and standings points (108 instead of 41).
Those are easy to see. So too, if you do a little research is winning percentage. In 2014-15, the USA played in 53 games, going 31-20-2, easily their best ever record. The year before, 14-34-2.
