GRR: Eagle Men
Back from the USA Selects trip to South America, USA MNT Head Coach Mike Tolkin can rightly be pleased with a lot of what happened.
The results were a 13-3 defeat of Uruguay, a 54-6 loss to the Argentina Jaguars, and a 28-23 loss against those same Jaguars.
The USA Selects put in a much more impressive performance Saturday against the Argentina Jaguars compared to four days ago.
The USA team lost, but battled all the way in a 28-23 decision to a strong Jaguars team at Padre Ernesto Martearena stadium.
The Argentina Jaguars and USA Selects have named their squads for the second game between the two teams on May 2.
The Jaguars won the first match 54-6 against a fairly inexperienced Selects team. This USA squad has a few more caps under their belt.
In case you’ve forgotten (and I have to admit I almost did), the USA Men’s 7s team is competing in a World Series 7s tournament this coming weekend.
Head Coach Mike Friday replaced Nic Edwards with Martin Iosefo in a move of startling logic, and we’re now seeing more and more the profile of the team Friday wants.
