USA 7s team Head Coach Mike Friday has made one change to his squad going into the London 7s.

Nate Ebner will drop out of the team and suit up instead for the USA Falcons in Tours, France in a move that is obviously designed to get him more game time. Former West Point All American Ben Leatigaga comes into the USA team.

The USA Men’s 7s team did not play well in Paris, lost in the Bowl semifinals, and slipped from 5th to 6th in the World Series standings.

In fact, given the Eagles’ recent form, they might slip to 7th. This is a far cry from the first seven tournaments of the season, during which they finished in the top eight all seven times, and finished in the top four twice.

Pool Play at the Paris 7s was, for the second tournament in a row, not the best of news for the USA, as the Eagles finished 1-2.

It all started with difficulty as Argentina dominated in the opener on Friday, scoring three tries in the first half and three in the second to win 36-0. The Argentineans just took the Eagles apart.

HARARE, Zimbabwe - The USA U20s finished 5th at the World Rugby U20 Trophy with a 2-2 record after coming from behind to beat Uruguay 32-30 in extra time Sunday.

Disappointed to have lost a must-win game against Spain that would have seen the Junior All Americans win the pool, the U20s instead took 3rd in their pool and had to be content with a fight for 5th.
