Canadians go 3-0 on Day 1 as they look to defend Sydney Sevens title
SYDNEY, Australia – The Canadian women’s sevens team is on the right path to defending their Sydney Sevens title.
Canada went 3-0 on Friday — capping the day with a 19-5 win over third-ranked Russia — to finish first in Pool C at the 12-nation World Series tournament and advance to the Cup quarterfinals.
The Canadians will play France in Saturday’s quarters.
Canada began the day with a 24-12 win over Fiji, then beat Ireland by the same score in its second match.
Seven members of the Canadian roster are holdovers from the bronze-winning side at the 2016 Rio Olympics.
