The USA Men’s Eagles Sevens are fresh off their second Cup final victory in the HSBC World Sevens Series, winning at the USA Sevens in Las Vegas. They are now in Vancouver for the Canada Sevens at BC Place Stadium and will try to continue their rise in the standing from 6th place.
The Canada Sevens is being held March 10-11. Matches will be broadcast LIVE on ESPN3. The USA tops Pool A and will face Uruguay first, rival Canada next and then Australia to close out Pool play on Day One.
The USA needed to replace Maka Unufue and Joe Schroeder, both out with injuries sustained last weekend, with Brett Thompson a veteran Eagles 7s player, and with Nick Boyer, who is competing in his second tournament.
