Collegiate All Americans

The selection process has been announced for the 2009 Collegiate All American team and it appears to remain consistent with the 2008 process (Press Release). USA Rugby should be commended for the increasingly transparent process of selecting All Americans. You may not always agree with the selections but you do know how they were selected and who the selectors were. As a player you know that if you make your TU team, have a good run at the NASC then you have a shot. That's all a player can ask for... There's nothing worse than paying all that money to go to the NASC and then get the feeling that the team was selected before you even got there. Not too long ago, many felt like that was the case.
