Canadian women with backs against the wall at Rugby Sevens tournament after losses to U.S. and Ireland
The Canadian women find their backs against the wall after losing their opening two matches Friday at the HSBC Canada Sevens tournament at BC Place Stadium.
The women trailed 5-0 at halftime. Canada was strong defensively but managed to cross centre field only once. “It’s a huge milestone for me,” she said. “It’s cool to be so far along in my career and still making milestones.” “They got a couple of good steals on us. Hopefully we start the next one with as much energy as we finished.”
The early games were played before screaming schoolchildren invited for the opening day of tournament, which ends Sunday. By the afternoon there were fans in costumes ranging from a group of white snow monsters, sailors, plenty of loud flowered shirts and a few bananas.
