HAMILTON, BERMUDA - The World Tens Series has concluded, but the smoke is only now clearing after a barn-burner of a tournament ended with a sizzling finale. The SX10s side are deserved champions, but they were tested until the final seconds by that never-say-die from America's heartland, the Ohio Aviators. After their heroic efforts in a guy-wrenching loss, USA Rugby teammates Dylan "The Butcher" Fawsitt (Rugby United NY) & Bryce Campbell (Austin Gilgronis) took a minute to speak with our Matt McCarthy, live from pitch.

Be sure to see our other interviews with South African stars Cecil Afrika & Frankie Horne and Kenya stars Collins Injera & Willy Ambaka.

NEW YORK, NY - Last week three black men offered their views on racism in and and away from rugby. This week, we get the female perspective from three USA Rugby pillars, Phaidra Knight, Alycia Washington & Naya Tapper. Their conversation with Steve Lewis & Matt McCarthy is sometimes awkward and even testy... which is a necessary component of moving forward. This extended Community Corner segment, courtesy of The Murphy Kennedy Group, is worth your time.

NEW YORK, NY - There is no time like the present for candid, if awkward, conversations about racism, perceptions and the narrowing of the divide(s) that are cause for protests, boycotts and violence here in America, and abroad. Rugby United NY, Old Blue & Roots star, Derek Lipscomb, joins New York Rugby's David Flemister and Junior Blaber in a sometimes uncomfortable conversation with Matt McCarthy re their experiences, hopes and calls for action.
