GRR: National Teams
USA Rugby is send a women's Falcons and a men's Falcons team to the EAAST 7s series to be held in Europe.
The series features tournaments in Cognac, France this weekend, and Haguenau near the German border next weekend.
The Falcons are designed as a development program that gives newer players experience in international 7s. That is exactly what this lineup needs.
The USA women lost 79-14 to New Zealand and now are 0-4 for 2025.
Overall, that's not a massive disaster. Yes they should have beaten Japan, and if they had played better but within their ability parameters, they could have beaten Australia. They competed in a number of levels against Canada but the Canadians were certainly a better team.
USA Rugby confirmed today that Simon Amor has decided to step away from his role with the USA Men’s Sevens. In his place, USA Rugby has appointed Zack Test as the new Head Coach of the program, effective immediately.
The USA Women's Eagles were pipped 27-19 by Australia's Wallaroos at GIO Stadium in Canberra Saturday, moving the USA to 0-2 in Pacific Four Series.
Despite a huge game by prop Hope Rogers, who scored three tries, the Eagles couldn't pull out a victory.
Early Saturday morning, at 2:55AM ET, the USA women will take on Australia in a crucial Pacific Four game.
The Eagles have already lost to Canada (and were a shade unlucky) and Australia has already lost to New Zealand (and were a shade unlucky), and it's likely that this game will decide which of these two teams will advance to the WXV 1 later in the year.
