GRR: WXV
Hamilton, NZ (USA Rugby Release)—The 2024 Pacific Four Series continues in Hamilton, New Zealand, where the USA Women’s Eagles take on New Zealand. USA v New Zealand kicks off Friday, May 10, at 10:05 pm ET, live on Peacock.
DUBLIN, IRE (World Rugby/USA Rugby Release) - World Rugby today confirmed the Pacific Four Series will return in 2024 between April 27 and May 25 across three host nations. With matches taking place in Australia, New Zealand and USA, the USA Women’s Eagles will return home for the opening match against Canada, the first test match on US soil since the Pacific Four Series in 2021.
The USA has ended the WXV 1-2 after a 30-8 loss to Italy in the final game.
That game had its own drama as Italy needed to win by 25 or more to win the WXV 2 trophy. They were held out by some dogged defense by the Eagles, allowing Scotland to celebrate their tournament victory.
On the way to getting back to the upper echelon the USA Women’s National 15s team faces a difficult opponent Saturday in the person of Italy.
What they want to do is show they’ve taken strides since the last time played (and lost to) Italy, which was 2022.
USA Women's 15s Interim Head Coach Milton Haig announced his matchday 23 to meet Italy in the final WXV 2 match in Cape Town.
USA v. Italy kicks off at 11 a.m. ET on Saturday, October 28, live on RugbyPass TV.
