GRR: National Teams
CASA GRANDE, Ariz. – The USA Rugby Girls High School All-Americans powered by ATAVUS will hold an East Winter Camp Feb 12-15 at the National Training Center in Clermont, Fla. following up on last month's West Winter Camp at the Casa Grande Sports Academy in Arizona.
Difficulty in breaking through the midfield was an issue for the USA Men’s 7s team in Wellington, and while the Eagles beat Samoa and France, they lost to England, Fiji, and Australia thanks to a lot of effort being expended trying to get through solid defenses.
The USA Men's 7s team got a double injury blow last week as Brett Thompson hurt himself in training and Kevin Swiryn injured his knee during the team's final game against Fiji.
The USA Men’s 7s team bowed out with two losses on Day Two of the Wellington 7s, finishing tied for 7th after making the Cup Quarterfinals.
The Eagles played as if they were frustrated, going into a lot of contact, and letting setbacks get into their heads.
The squad for the USA Men's National 15s Team set to play in the Americas Rugby Championship is what you'd expect - a whole bunch of new guys hoping to make this the start of a long career, peppered with veteran.
