Eagle Women Bring Surprise and Pace on Day One in Dubai

SVNS giveth and SVNS taketh away.

The USA women’s team provided all sorts of surprises in Day One of the opening weekend of the Series in Dubai.

Coming in with a very young, very inexperienced team, the Eagles were up against it with a tightened-up, eight-team tournament where there are no easy games.

Eagle Men Wrap 2025 with Win Over Physical Romanian Side

The record will show that the USA beat Romania 26-18, but really it wasn't that close as the Eagles put in a pretty gritty defensive performance to beat the Oaks in Bucharest and regain the Pershing Cup.

With the win the USA ends 2025 3-6, and 7-3 overall against Romania (not counting the 21-0 win in 1919 between a USA military team and a Romanian mostly military team).
