The Men’s Eagles have made one change to their roster for the Paris Sevens. Joe Schroeder comes in to replace the injured Brett Thompson. Schroeder, a veteran of eight previous events, jumps straight into the 12-man roster with Maceo Brown maintaining his spot as 13th man.
With only one tournament to play the USA trails Fiji by only two points on the overall 2018-19 HSBC Sevens Series standings. The Eagles have already guaranteed their place at the 2020 Olympics and their highest ever overall placing, but can make history once more with a strong showing in Paris.
The USA headlines Pool C after their Bronze finish in London. Their opening day opposition consists of Spain, Samoa, and Canada. All matches will be broadcast live on ESPN.
