At only 19 years old, Saint Mary’s College center, Dom Besag has already earned his senior USA cap, won a national collegiate title and just recently, captained USA U20’s to two consecutive wins over Canada to secure another trip to the World Rugby U20s Trophy in Scotland this July. What does it mean to get back there to Dom, and what will it take to improve over last year’s results. Also, how has the speed and physicality of the game changed since he earned his senior cap, how did he get into the game at such a young age, and, who does he look up to on the pitch.

Be sure to check out the 1st half of the show with U20s Head Coach, Neets Gericke.
