The USA Men’s Eagles finished their campaign in Cape Town with a commendable 10th place, showcasing moments of promise despite encountering some hurdles in their second SVNS tournament of the season.
During the pool stage, the Men’s Eagles faced formidable opponents, including the Olympic champions, France, and the powerhouse team from New Zealand. Although they struggled to find their rhythm amidst this tough competition, glimmers of progress emerged. Head Coach Simon Amor reflected on their challenges, stating, “We had a bad experience against France... but I was really pleased with the team's fight, grit, and staying in the games going forward.
Amor emphasized the importance of building strong connections and developing effective defensive strategies as they move forward: “A big point for us... will be our connections, how we fight for each other, and learn to love playing for each other.” The team exhibited exceptional teamwork and an unbreakable spirit as they overcame significant challenges. They defeated Fiji and Great Britain during pool play before securing a thrilling semifinal victory against Australia, where Toliver's last-minute score clinched a dramatic 24-19 win.
