When the USA Men's Eagles opened their Nations Cup run with a 30-29 win over Portugal on Saturday, July 4 in Denver, the bench held a name Georgia rugby will recognize. Julian Roberts, who played his college rugby at Life University in Marietta and scored in the 2019 national final on the way to titles in 2018 and 2019, earned his first USA cap that night.

He did not stop there. Roberts appeared in all three matches of the Eagles' 3-0 sweep, starting at outside center and scoring a try in the 29-22 win over Spain on Saturday, July 18. From Lupo Family Field to a national jersey. Worth a raised glass around here.
