It was almost like the world stopped spinning when Sophie de Goede announced that she had torn her ACL. In one fell swoop, the injury sustained in a training camp put her Olympic dreams on hold.
For as long as Hope Rogers can remember, she has strived for perfection. Since the USA Women’s Eagle was 16, she has honed her craft on the rugby field and this weekend will overtake Jamie Burke as her nation’s most-capped player when they host Canada this Friday night in Missouri.
This is the best I've ever seen us look in camp. I felt like we were so well driven, and for the first time, we came into camp how we left off at WXV.
I actually think Canada will win this week but voted for USA above to even the odds for a start as Black Ferns have to play both these teams and Australia over the next month. MAY THE BEST TEAM WIN!!!!
PACIFIC FOUR ORDER WILL CHANGE AGAIN NEXT MONTH!
