South U19s Named for RAN Championship
The USA Rugby South U19 all-star program has finalized its squad to play in the Rugby Americas North (what used to be NACRA) U19 Championships.
As has happened in the past, the South will represent the USA in this tournament, which includes U19 national teams from around the Carribean. The South Panthers roster was finalized after scouting at the South Regional Cup Tournament in Matthews, NC.
The South is in Pool B along with Bermuda and Trinidad & Tobago. The Panthers play Bermuda July 9 and T&T on July 13 in Miami, Fla. as part of Superweek, a festival that will also include a RAN women's U19 10-a-side tournament.
