GRR: Women Junior All Americans
The Women's Collegiate and Junior All American camp is underway in Salt Lake City, with Thursday being the beginning of competitive games for all concerned.
When Jenny Johnson entered her final semester of high school, she knew what was awaiting her post-graduation. Her older sister was playing basketball at Central Washington University, and in November 2013, Johnson signed her National Letter of Intent to do the same. But after her senior season of basketball, she tried rugby, and everything changed.
So many standouts emerged – and reasserted themselves – last week as the junior and high school All Americans went 4-0 against their Canadian opponents. One of the most impressive aspects of these tours was the performance of the high schoolers who played up on the Women’s Junior All Americans (WJAAs).
As expected, the Canada U20s came for blood today, having lost Wednesday’s Can-Am game 38-22 to the Women’s Junior All Americans (WJAAs). The visitors exerted themselves early on, as the WJAAs struggled to find some continuity. But it was a slow build for the Americans, and the hosts didn't allow another point-against in their 32-5 win.
There’s both a sigh of relief and an eagerness to get back to work in the Women’s Junior All American (WJAA) camp.
