Weird Road to Quarterfinals for USA Men in Vancouver
THE USA men squeaked into the CUp Quarterfinals in Vancouver despite one of the most lopsided losses in their history.
The Eagles, having played poorly in LA, started off the Canada 7s in Vancouver even worse, getting thumped 52-0 by New Zealand. Were the All Blacks 7s on a roll, or were there problems in the USA side?

Small Moments and USA Finishes 13th
In the end, the USA finished 13th at the LA 7s.
That's 3-3, but the three losses came at bad times. Whether Day One has been good or not, your first game on Day Two has to be a good one. It wasn't for the Eagles and they lost to Spain.
