GRR: Overseas Pros
With the European Cup competitions underway, professional clubs in Europe got to see a different type of competition this week.
USA prop David Ainu'u ran on as a sub at prop for Toulouse and helped them seal a 29-22 victory over Ulster in Pool B.
AJ MacGinty continued his solid line of form for the Sale Sharks as he helped his side to a 21-13 defeat of London Irish..
The USA flyhalf almost scored a try (he was dragged down just short), played superb defense, and was crucial offensively, setting up the Sale attack and kicking one conversion and three penalties.
It was a relatively quiet Thanksgiving Weekend for USA players overseas, but a few players were in action and some had some good news.
Despite come difficulties due to COVID, some USA players have been in action overseas, with the Eagle flyhalf making an especially big impact.
Americans Kate Zackary, Gabby Cantorna, and Jenine Duncan have been key additions to the Exeter Chiefs in the English Women's Premiership team's inaugural season, and they contributed on the scoresheet this past weekend.
