GRR: National Teams
Already it's clear that the PR7s All-Star Tournament was a massive success.
Putting PR7s All-Stars up against a provisional USA team was an important test for all of those players. This was especially true given that the PR7s All-Stars also had USA hopefuls on their squads.
For the men's teams, new USA Coach Simon Amor got a chance to see how young players competed.
Madrid, Spain—The USA Men's 15s team held on for a tough 26-23 victory over Spain Saturday in Madrid, overcoming an early deficit and a late Spanish surge to end their November tour 3-0.
USA Men's Head Coach Scott Lawrence has made five changes to the starting lineup set to face Spain this coming Saturday.
The USA produced one of their best performances in recent years and their best showing against Tonga since 1999 in defeating the ‘Ikale Tahi 36-19 Saturday in Chambery, France.
USA Head Coach Scott Lawrence has selected the same starting 15 that played against Portugal for Saturday's test match against Tonga in Chambery, France.
This makes sense since the USA won that game against Portugal and the starting 15 came away without major injury.
Lawrence has made changes in the bench, with Mikey Grandy and Mark O'Keeffe set to make their Eagles debuts.
