The USA is coming off a great opening performance against England, in which the Eagles lost 15-11 on the last play of the game. If the USA can repeat their excellent performance from Tuesday, then they'll nearly lock up the opportunity to replay the Roses in the championship match on August 13.

Jamie Burke takes over the field captain duties from Kim Magrini and hopes to replicate the win that occured during the North Americans' last faceoff at the Rugby World Cup in September.

The game kicks off at 7:30 EST. Stay tuned for game details and player and coach feedback.
