USA defeated Scotland 62-41 on November 4th exciting first match at the Rugby League World Cup in England.
Player to watch: Tony LeBoutillier. A versatile athlete who has played wheelchair basketball, wheelchair lacrosse
and sled hockey as well, LeBoutillier's variety of skills and experiences could prove invaluable for the Americans as
they embark on their first World Cup campaign.
What to expect: A relative unknown on the international stage, the USA have already expressed their desire to
"cause a few upsets" when they get started. Grouped with Wales, Scotland and defending champions France, they
will have some tough tests but will be ready to show that they are more than capable of putting in a positive performance.
Director and Coach Juan Jasso Jr. says this win is the result of 18months of hardwork by everyone involved with the setup
and their familes supporting them.
USA will face off against Wales Monday November 7th. Check out the coverage on Fite.tv for free.
