"With Rugby 7's being a newly included sport in the upcoming 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, the abbreviated version of the full 15-man game is garnering wider popularity in the US and throughout the world.

BYU ventured to Logan, UT last week and entered two teams in the Utah State 7's tournament two weeks ago. Both BYU teams ended the tournament undefeated being led by USA Eagle Shaun Davies and All Americans Ryan Roundy, Seki Kofe and Ray Forrester. Recently returned missionaries Ryan Blaser and Lelann Latu also showed well.

It's expected BYU will enter two teams to the invitational along with Utah and UVU doing the same.

Following the Cougar 7's Invitational BYU is slated to enter the Rocky Mountains 7's Tournament later in October in order to qualify for the USA Rugby Collegiate 7's Championships to be held at Texas A&M November 30th-December 1st."
