Ben Pinkelman announces his withdrawal from the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020
CHULA VISTA, Calif — USA Men’s 7s National Team player Ben Pinkelman was forced to withdraw from the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 due to a chronic back injury.
DUBLIN, IRE.— USA Men's 15s Head coach Gary Gold has made four changes to the starting lineup to face Ireland Saturday at 2:15PM ET.
with three new faces on the bench as the USA Men’s XVs National Team faces Ireland for the first time since 2018 on Saturday, KO 2:15 PM ET, on florugby.com.
Ireland Head Coach Andy Farrell has named the Ireland side to face the USA at the Aviva Stadium in the final match of the USA's two-game summer assembly.
Sunday’s test match with England at Twickenham was a battle, to be sure, and a result that the USA should be proud of, but, said Eagle lock Greg Peterson, the American team should remember one thing:
“We didn’t actually win that game.”
Oh, don’t get Peterson wrong, he’s impressed and he should be.
Andrew Brace of Ireland put in a very solid showing as referee of the USA vs England test on July 4th.
Brace, from Ireland, handled the entire game with a calm demeanor, and, critically for the USA, did not approach his decisions (generally) with a pre-arranged notion of who knew what they were doing.
