U.S.A. Women 7's head coach Ric Suggitt has announced the 12 player he is taking to the Guangzhou 7's later this month. Nine of the 12 players that played in the Houston 7's return. Ryan Carlyle, Kimber Rozier, and Emilie Bydwell have all been left on the squad in favor of Sadie Anderson, Meya Bizer, and Irene Gardner, all of whom are making the IRB Womens Sevens Series debut. Noticeably absent from the squad is Bui Baravilila who is still injured and unavailable. However, the squad is still very deep and possesses other players that can fill in for Baravilala's scoring.
The Eagles currently sit in sixth place in the standings thanks to their second place finish in Houston. A good result in Guangzhou will go along way to assuring that the team finishes in the top echelon of the table. First up for the team is Fiji on March 29th followed by hosts China and ever dangerous England on March 30th.
Team: Sadie Anderson*, Meya Bizer*, Katie Dowty, Lauren Doyle, Vix Folayan, Irene Gardner*, Kelly Griffin, Nathalie Marchino, Vanesha McGee, Deven Owsiany, Jillion Potter, Christie Ringgenberg
