GRR: National Teams
There is a lot on Scott Lawrence’s plate as he takes on the positions of Interim Men’s 15s Eagles Head Coach and Interim GM of High Performance.
First on the list is to not worry about the “Interim” part of that job description.
USA Rugby has announced that the organization has appointed two interim Head Coaches for the two senior 15-a-side national teams.
Scott Lawrence is now the Interim Head Coach for the USA Men's Team, and Rich Ashfield is the Interim Head Coach for the USA Men's Team.
Lawrence, meanwhile, is also Interim General Manager of Men's 15s High Performance, replacing Dan Payne.
USA Women's 15s Head Coach Rob Cain has officially announced that he will not return to coach the USA team.
The USA Men’s High Performance Pathway is holding its finally talent ID assembly this week.
Both the Men's and Women's HP Pathway systems have much work to do as USA Rugby looks ahead to the 2024 and 2028 Olympics, the 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup, and the 2027 Men's Rugby World Cup.
It's 3rd place for the USA Men's 7s team in Cape Town after the Eagles defeated South Africa in the Bronze Medal match.
