Men's Eagles Announce Roster for 2018 Americas Rugby Championship  

New Head Coach Gary Gold announced a traveling roster which includes 18 returning players from the 2017 Americas Rugby Championship (ARC).

The 39-man squad for the upcoming 5-match tournament showcases the very best players from the past season. The line-up includes Fullback Mike Te'o, Scrumhalf Shaun Davies, Wing Ryan Matyas, and Captain Blaine Scully.

Mike Te'o makes his 2018 debut having started all 11 games last season, accounting for a total of 25 points including a hat trick he earned against Canada during the 2017 ARC. Shaun Davies joins Te'o, owning 23 points in his 9 starts from last year, helping his squad to a well earned 42-17 victory over Germany with his two tries this past November. Ryan Matyas rounds out the scoring bunch with his 15 total points in 7 starts, adding to the dynamic threat the growing squad will make against the upcoming competition.

Blaine Scully picks up as Captain from the November tests as Head Coach Gary Gold and the Men's Eagles attempt to make another undefeated run in the 2018 Americas Rugby Championship.
