GRR: National Teams
Mike Tolkin still has a few selection headaches to deal with as his team prepares for Australia at Soldier Field.
What I like about Sunday’s game against Harlequins wasn’t that the USA lost, but that they played a team that … shall we say … pushes the boundaries.
CHICAGO (USA Rugby Announcement) – The 31-man USA team for Rugby World Cup 2015 England has been announced.
More exciting firsts for the women's side of the game! The Elite City 7s held its first women's division this year, and the Women’s Collegiate All American 7s (WCAA) made good use of the event for its debut outing. Led by interim head coach Brandon Sparks, the All Americans swept the competition, defeating American Rugby Pro Training Center (ARPTC) 17-10 in yesterday's final.
Harlequins edged the USA 24-19 Sunday at PPL Park in Chester, Pa. in a pre World Cup exhibition match.
The Eagles and Harlequins both ran out an expanded game-day squad, featuring a longer bench and slightly relaxed substitution rules. The USA took an early 3-0 lead after they opened the game pressuring the London pro club and earned a penalty, duly converted by AJ MacGinty.
