HS All Americans Set Sights on LVI
(USA Rugby Release) - USA Rugby Boys High School All-Americans Head Coach Salty Thompson has selected an assembly squad of 16 young rugby players for this week's Las Vegas Invitational in Nevada.
Where Inexperienced Eagles Come From
The USA Men’s team that faces a relatively inexperienced Argentina XV Saturday at BBVA Compass Stadium is pretty inexperienced, too.
Tougher HSAA Camp Welcome By Players
Players at the HS All-American Winter Camp were expected to reach tougher fitness and skill standards than in the past, and the players welcomed the change.
“It was very intense,” said Arkansas-based scrumhalf Ruben de Haas. “We had to work really hard and as a result it was a really high-quality camp.”
De Haas Doubles Up in Camps
It was a very busy winter break for Ruben de Haas.
The Arkansas-based scrumhalf attended the USA U20 (aka Men’s Junior All-American) camp before Christmas, and then the High School All-American camp after Christmas.
Since both camps were in Arizona, he and his family, naturally, spent December 25 in Las Vegas, as you do.
Tough Standards Make for Successful HSAA Camp
The Boys HS All American Camp wrapped up at the change of the years, and coming out of it, Head Coach Salty Thompson is sounding very positive.
