Women Eagles Name Nations Cup Roster

The annual Nations Cup featuring the U.S., Canada, England, and South Africa is just around the corner. As such, head coach Pete Steinberg has named his roster for the tournament. Standouts from the series against France, such as Eric Cavanaugh and Meya Bizer return, as do members of the U.S.A. 7's team, including Emilie Bydwell, Jillion Potter, Christy Ringgenberg, Kimber Rozier, and Deven Owsiany, who has never been capped at XV's. This will be the first time in a long while that Steinberg has had his full compliment of players.

While there are veteran players on the team like Ringgenberg, Jocelyn Tseng, and all time cap leader Jamie Burke, the team will also feature plenty of younger faces. Sadie Anderson played with the team against France and did well. She is currently with the U.S. University team in Russia. Bizer played extremely well at times against France and will now have even more of an opportunity.

The tournament is being hosted by the U.S. in Greeley, Colorado and at Infinity Park. The U.S. will play South Africa on July 30th, followed by Canada and England on August 3rd and 7th respectively. The final day will be on August 10th.
