    USA Wins Wheelchair Rugby Title


    The USA will start as hot favorites to win gold, and defend their Paralympic title in London 2012, after securing another World Wheelchair Rugby Championship at the weekend.

    After six days of intense competition involving 12 nations, the USA secured their fourth world title in five championships with a hard fought 57-45 victory over Australia in Vancouver, Canada.

    USA’s high scorer Will Groulx said: “Every Championship is very special. We work really hard and every team is different that we play with. We even overcame some adversity in playing some very tough games.”

    Anyone remember that documentary about the Wheelchair rugby player who used to be a USA player and then went to coach Canada? It was known in Rhode Island because he lived there, anyways, they showed a brief snippet of the NZ team doing a aka in their chairs, I wish they had shown the whole thing.
