GRR: National Teams
In case you’ve forgotten (and I have to admit I almost did), the USA Men’s 7s team is competing in a World Series 7s tournament this coming weekend.
Head Coach Mike Friday replaced Nic Edwards with Martin Iosefo in a move of startling logic, and we’re now seeing more and more the profile of the team Friday wants.
The pools and schedule have been released for the London 7s (Friday-Saturday, May 15-16), the fifth stop on the World Rugby Women’s Sevens Series. The USA enter the competition tied for 5th in the standings, but only 12 points separate #2 Canada and #7 Russia, and there are two more tournaments to play.
Chester, Pa. (USA Rugby Report) – USA Rugby has announced that the USA Men's National Team will play a non-test Rugby World Cup warmup match against Harlequins F.C. on Sunday, August 30 at PPL Park in Chester, Pa..
Harlequins play in the Aviva Premiership in England will be making their first trip to Philadelphia in the team’s history.
USA Men’s National Team Head Coach Mike Tolkin acknowledged Tuesday that he threw a few players to the wolves, but it’s something he has to do at some point.
The team he ran out against the Argentina Jaguars was quite inexperienced, while the Argentina team had a large contingency of regular Pumas, many of which had a key role in the 54-6 victory for the hosts in Salta.
The USA Selects got a nice lesson in test match rugby Tuesday evening in Salta, Argentina, as they were beaten by the Argentina 54-6 in the first of two matches between the teams.
