The USA and Samoa have named their squads to face each in the Junior World Rugby Trophy in Tbilisi, Georgia. The Eagles are led by captain Will Magie at flyhalf. Right wing Apelu So'oalo was born in Samoa and raised in Hawaii. Some of the players he will face on Tuesday are relatives. The players have been in Georgia for jsut a couple of days, as they spent their training camp in the London Area. During that time they played the Ireland Exiles and lost 18-15. Flanker Alec Gletzer played especially well, and is rewarded with a start on Tuesday. The USA and Samoa kick off Tuesday morning at 6am EST, 3am PST USA U20s 1 Chuck Koehler (UW-Whitewater) 2 Patrick Latu (SFGG) 3 Paul Mullen (Houston Area Rugby Club) 4 Pat Coleman 5 Dan Metcalf (Penn State) 6 Alec Gletzer (UCSB) 7 Tyler Black (Colorado Springs) 8 Vake Sanft (Spearhead Academy) 9 Michael Oliver (Loughborough University) 10 Will Magie (Leeds University)(c) 11 Madison Hughes (Wellington College) 12 Bubba Jones (St. Mary's) 13 Will Farrell (University of Georgia) 14 Apelu So'oalo (Kalihi Raiders) 15 Joe Cowley (Life University) 16 OJ Auimatagi (OMBAC) 17 Drew Ohmann (Life University) 18 Tim O'Hara (Santa Clara University) 19 Mike Juszczak (University of Utah) 20 Mike Durant (NYAC) 21 Conor Mills (Texas A&M) 22 Jake Fallon (Grand Rapids) Samoa U20s 1 Gody Schuster 2 Ausetalia Vaiomanu 3 Michael Alaalatoa 4 William Skelton 5 Talaga Alofipo 6 Jordan Taufua 7 Greg Foe 8 Suamalie Tuiletufuga 9 Paul Tuia 10 Patrick Fa'apale (C) 11 Utu Poliko 12 Robert Lilomaiava 13 Faavae Faavae 14 Viliamu Alauni 15 Peter Schuster 16 Ropeti Lafo 17 Frank Fa'atau 18 Elia Togitele 19 Oneone Fa'afou 20 Vavao Afemai 21 Saato Iosua 22 Afereti Iona
