As we come to the fourth Talent ID Trial for PR7s it's interesting to note the young players who have shown their abilities.
One of those out of the Kansas City Trial was Aidan Chavez, a player for the Kansas City Junior Blues who turned heads at the Kansas City Trial.

Perhaps not a surprise. This is what KC Jr. Blues Head Coach Casey Cummings told GRR leading into the NAI 7s this past summer:
"We're looking for a big performance from incoming senior Aiden Chavez from Fort Osage High School. He had a great spring and won the Jr Blues Back of the Year award even while battling a few injuries. He is feeling and looking fresh and I think ready to blow the doors off some competition again in SLC."
Of Dominican descent but raised Samoan since he was six, Chavez started playing rugby as a freshman in high school, hooking on with the Independence Warriors before transferring to the Junior Blues his second year. As Cummings pointed out, the scrumhalf eploded in his junior year. He was a constant threat to run as well as run the attack and against Lindbergh last year he scored five tries in one game.
