    MLR Weekly: USA & Chicago Lock Brandon Harvey, PLUS US Rugby Foundation CEO Shane Young

    CARY, NC - The first half the World Rugby Nations Cup has come to a conclusion, and USA Rugby handled everything Portugal, Zimbabwe and Spain could throw at them. In the middle of it all (literally) was Brandon Harvey, the towering, young Chicago Hounds star. Brandon is one our two featured guests to chat with MLR Weekly host Matt McCarthy, Harvey discusses earning significant minutes with the Eagles, his development, and the confidence fueling Team USA's run. Our other featured guest could arguably be the most important rugby executive on the American landscape. CEO Shane Young of the U.S. Rugby Foundation is charged with growing the game in places it doesn't exist and/or growing it where it may already exist. Just six months on the job after building Memphis Inner City Rugby and launching Urban Rugby Americas, Mr. Young peels back the curtain and chats openly about hurdles, hope and real change. 🎥 This Week's Featured Guests 🇺🇸 Brandon Harvey (USA Eagles & Chicago Hounds) 🏉 Shane Young (CEO, U.S. Rugby Foundation) Don't miss The Rugby Odds: https://rugbywrapup.com/category/the-rugby-odds/ 📩 Subscribe for weekly rugby updates: [https://rugbywrapup.com/weekly-updates/ 🏉 Tag a rugby mate!
