Allen, Henrich and Bitter in USA World Cup squad

Emerson Allen, Kristin Bitter and Emily Henrich has been selected in the USA squad for the Women's Rugby World Cup.

The trio are three of 15 players who will play in their first-ever Rugby World Cup. 

Allen, who signed for the club late last week, made her international debut last year in a test series against Japan, the lock then impressing as part of a Twin Cities Gemini side in Women's Elite Rugby. 

Bitter, meanwhile, recently came off the bench to help the Eagles secure a 31 - 24 win over Fiji, the fly half helping to see out a nip and tuck game.

Henrich, finally, scored in that very match, collecting a high kick to dot down, finishing up a summer series of test matches that saw the versatile back start every match of the 2025 Pacific Four series on the wing for the Eagles.
