A Closer Look at the USA U20 Squad
The USA U20s are in camp now and it’s a hugely diverse group of players that interim Head Coach JD Stephenson has to mold into a cohesive unit.
What he has to help him is the experience of many of these players - some have been with the U20s before, and others have been on trips with the HS All Americans or Eagle Impact Rugby Academy.
U20s Picked to Face Canada
Houston, Texas – The USA U20 (aka Junior All American) team to face Canada's U20s in Austin, Texas has been named.
U20s Assemble at Lindenwood
ST. CHARLES, Mo. (From USA Rugby Release) – USA Rugby's Men's Junior All-Americans will re-assemble Friday in the program's second camp of th 2015-16 season.
Interim Head Coach JD Stephenson will host the team at his very own Lindenwood University - a move that makes sense given that Stephenson is there anyway and was able to get things ready and provide the field space.
De Haas Doubles Up in Camps
It was a very busy winter break for Ruben de Haas.
The Arkansas-based scrumhalf attended the USA U20 (aka Men’s Junior All-American) camp before Christmas, and then the High School All-American camp after Christmas.
Since both camps were in Arizona, he and his family, naturally, spent December 25 in Las Vegas, as you do.
Solid Start for U20 Team
The Men’s Junior All Americans first winter camp wrapped up, but the group - or at least two-thirds of them - will be back for another go in January.
Fifty-two players were at the Casa Grande Academy in Arizona, and in January 15, about 35, including a few who weren’t there this December, will be brought in for the second camp.
