In Praise of Mike Te'o

So a little note in praise of Mike Te’o.

Mike Te’o came to national prominence a few years ago, when Belmont Shore Head Coach Ray Egan said to me and colleague Pat Clifton that he had a U19 player who was good enough to play for his men’s team. He’s a n odd player, said Eagan, because he’s a hooker, who can play center, and we’ve got him playing on the wing.

Eagles Shut Out Russia

On a very hot evening in Sacramento, the USA shut out Russia 25-0 in a game that showed some tenacity, but not always precision. 

The USA and Russia both struggled to make their chances pay off with a try, but finally the Eagles got on late through Mike Te'o.
