GRR: 7s
The Louisville Cardinals rolled through the Mid-American Conference 7s championships Saturday, and have accepted a big to the National Collegiate Rugby May Madness 7s after the win.
The R7CC 7s in Atlanta, May 14-15 is talking a lot about improving the athlete experience, and much of that has to do with some fairly basic, but important details.
Those details are things like: How do we get around? Where do we train? What medical care is there?
None of this is particular sexy, but it's enormously important to the players and teams.
Iowa State won the Heart of America 7s over the past weekend, putting themselves in position to play in the R7CCs in Atlanta.
There were surprises throughout the Boys Elite U18 bracket at the Tropical 7s.
The USA Rugby South Panther program had a pretty successful weekend at the Tropical 7s, winning at three different age groups, including at the U16 level.
Mike Orefice scouted and assembled the team and Gary Anderson and Andy Thomas coached the squad.
