HALIFAX — Cam Dolan scored three tries as the United States downed Canada 42-17 to take home the Can-Am Cup in a rugby test match Saturday.
Nate Augspurger, Blaine Scully and Ruben de Haas also scored tries for the American team known as the U.S. Eagles. AJ Macginty had four conversions and two penalties, earning man of the match honours.
Evan Olmstead and Jeff Hassler had second-half tries for the Canadians. Shane O’Leary had a penalty and two conversions.
“I don’t think it was really a full 80-minute performance,” said Olmstead, although he added the home team “really showed some improvement in patches.”
