GRR: 7s
We’re in the middle of the college 15s season, of course, but we’re also in the middle of figuring out who will be pushing for a major college 7s championship.
CHULA VISTA, Calif. – Richie Walker has replaced Julie McCoy as USA Women's 7s Coach.
Walker, who has worked with the ATAVUS Academy and coached the USA U20 women at the Youth Olympics, will lead the Women's Eagles Sevens program through the Rio 2016 Olympic Summer Games, USA Rugby announced Tuesday.
St. Louis University qualified for the USA Rugby National DII College 7s this past weekend, winning the Spring Hill College 7s.
It was an odd situation for SLU as they had initially planned to play in Nash Bash, a 15s tournament, but the team later decided to shoot to qualify for nationals, and so split their squad.
Greenwich High School won the Ariel Re Bermuda 7s boys HS bracket this weekend, defeating West Chester in overtime in the final.
Dartmouth won the Ariel Re Bermuda 7s Saturday, surprising Kutztown in the semifinals and defeating Stony Brook in the final.
Stony Brook also had a good tournament, losing only to Dartmouth (twice - in pool play and in the final).
For Dartmouth, the big result was the semifinal 12-10 victory over Kutztown, a result that not everyone would have predicted.
