New Zealand won gold, Fiji shocked everyone and almost won a medal, and the USA took 6th in the Women’s Rugby Sevens event at the Olympics.
The USA's medal chase is over in the Women's Olympic Rugby event in Tokyo.
The Eagles lost 21-12 to Great Britain, staking GB to a 21-0 lead thanks to two tries from Jasmine Joyce and another from captain Abbie Brown—Holly Atchison converted all three.
The USA Women ended pool play 3-0 after coming back to beat Australia 14-12 in a game where they didn't look at all like they would be able to win that game.
The USA is 2-0 in the Women’s Olympic Rugby event, and once again they spent a large proportion of the game on defense.
The Eagles were in control for the entire game and won 17-7, giving up a try just before full tine. They have secured a spot in the quarterfinals and will play Australia in the final pool match.
