High School Girls
There is still plenty to play for in the Girls brackets at the NAI 7s, but right now things look good for a couple of the local teams.
EMMITSBURG, Md. - The USA Rugby Girls High School All-Americans powered by ATAVUS U16s opened their first-ever international series with a 71-0 shutout of Rugby Québec Friday on the campus of Mount Saint Mary's.
Earlier this year, the U.S. Olympic Committee sanctioned its first ever Rugby specific Community Olympic Development Program (CODP) under the direction of Play Rugby USA (PRUSA) in partnership with the Northeast Academy. The first two U18 squads born of that initiative will make their elite tournament debuts next week at the North American Invitational 7s (NAI7s) in Salt Lake City, UT.
ATAVUS has named its girls 7s team to compete in the North American Invitational 7s this weekend in Salt Lake City, Utah.
ATAVUS will compete in the Girls Elite Division in Pool A, facing Atlantis, Rhino Academy, and Utah Lions.
