Romania Beats USA
Romania beat the USA for only the second time ever, and the first time since 1999, Saturday in Bucharest.
The Mighty Oaks controlled much of territory and possession, especially in the first half, and scored two early tries that, with a conversion and penalty from center Florin Vlaicu, made it 12-0. Vlaicu added another penalty to give his side a 15-0 lead.

Holder Leaves WCAP for Army Posting
USA player Will Holder is expected to be part of the USA’s plans for the November games for the USA, but after that, he will be assembling with another important team, the US Army.
Holder Handles Fullback
Will Holder’s performance at fullback for the USA Saturday was a nice highlight for player, team, and fans.
The former West Point All American is in the USA 7s program, and has been capped at flyhalf, but looked very much at home in a #15 jersey.
“It was fun,” Holder told Goff Rugby Report. “It was a great new experience, and the guys made it easy for me.”
