Coach John Tait has made two changes to his roster as the Canadian women’s rugby sevens team looks to make it two tournament wins in a row this week in Las Vegas.

Caroline Crossley and Sara Kaljuvee come in for Ashley Steacy and Julia Greenshields, who helped Canada lift the trophy last time out in Sydney.

Steacy is unavailable for the Las Vegas Sevens because of her sister’s wedding. Tait said prior to the Sydney stop that Crossley was unlucky not to make the 12-woman roster.

“Caroline has been consistently good in the practice and scrimmages so I’m looking forward to watching her compete in Vegas,” Tait said in a statement.

Greenshields will be in Vegas as part of the Maple Leafs development team playing in a companion invitational sevens tournament.

Canada stands third in the World Series standings, two points behind Australia and four back of New Zealand. Vegas is the third stop on the six-event circuit.
