Dartmouth College’s Madison Hughes Selected for USA Squad for Wellington 7’s

Dartmouth College’s Madison Hughes has been tearing it up in New England for the last couple of years, and it comes as little surprise he is being recognized nationally for his achievements.  Last month he was named to the Olympic Residency squad of twenty five players for 2014, the only men’s player from New England on the squad.

His first outing with the squad was to the recent USA Sevens Las Vegas tournament.  There Hughes competed not on the main USA team but on what was essentially the second side, called the Falcons.

The Falcons squad fell to a star-studded Serevi Selects in the final, but Hughes’ efforts  were rewarded with his first call up to the USA squad for the next round of Seven’s competition, the Wellington Seven’s in Wellington, New Zealand, scheduled for Feb 7th and 8th.
