The USA’s Rugby World Cup opener against Samoa is what the Eagles’ tournament hinges on.
In the upcoming RuggaMatrix America podcast, co-host Bruce McLane says exactly that - it’s all about Samoa, and up-and-coming USA center Thretton Palamo knows it, too.
BOULDER, Colo. – USA Rugby announced Wednesday former Eagle Jules McCoy will lead the Women’s Eagles Sevens into the Rio 2016 Olympic Summer Games.
Samoa looms on the USA’s radar as Sunday will come all too quickly.
That game will be the opening game of the Rugby World Cup for the Eagles, and likely will be the biggest game of the World Cup. If the USA wants to get automatic qualification for 2019 (by finishing 3rd in their pool or better), or wants to make the quarterfinals, they have to beat Samoa.
