The USA Falcons finished 4th at the Mar Del Plata 7s in Argentina. On Day Two they defeated Canada 33-0 but lost 19-7 to Litoral to finished 2-3 in pool play.
That set up a 3rd/4th clash with hosts Mar Del Plata. MDP had beaten the Falcons 14-12 on Day One, and won again, 14-7, on Sunday.
Still, it was not a bad competition for the USA, where they were overwhelmed by only one opponent, eventual champions Argentina.
