Big Challenge For USA Men In Madrid
It's a big ask for the USA Men's 7s team to cross nine time zones and rock up at the Madrid 7s, but of course they'll face it with relish in part because they just want to play.
Head Coach Mike Friday said he expects some stiff competition when the USA kicks off on Saturday for the first of two weekends of games.
All-Time American List: Dan Lyle
Possibly the most significant rugby player to come out of the United States ever, and undoubtedly the best American player of the early professional era, Dan Lyle changed the game in a variety of ways that can still be seen today.
All-Time American List: Ray Lehner
Ray Lehner was the first in a long line of players who played for Jesuit of Sacramento, Cal, and the USA.
All-Time American List: Ray Nelson
Ray Nelson was a points machine and a dynamic fullback for the USA.
Capped 25 by the USA at a time when the Eagles didn't play a lot every year, Nelson was born in Glasgow, Scotland, and he played his first rugby games there. He was talented and went on to play for Scotland at age-grade levels and was also skilled in 7s.
Iosefo, Williams Lead USA Men To Madrid
The USA Men's 7s team Head Coach Mike Friday has picked 16 players to travel for the USA Men’s Sevens National Team’s first international competition of 2021.
