Former Vol Josh Shetler has been named to Anthem Rugby Carolina’s roster in 2024.
Shetler played on Tennessee’s national championship team in 2021.
2024 will be the first season for Anthem RC competing in Major League Rugby. Anthem RC is slated to play at American Legion Memorial Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina.
“It’s an honor and a privilege to be part of the first Anthem Rugby Carolina team for the 2024 MLR season, everything has I happened so quickly,” Anthem RC head coach Alama Ieremia said. “There’s been a lot of work behind the scenes to bring this team of management, coaches and players together. We are grateful and extremely excited to showcase our abilities and create something special for the team. Not just for this year, but most importantly, for the future. We are realistic and know it won’t be easy, but we are committed to pushing each other hard and accelerating our learning through the high performance environment here in Charlotte.”
Anthem RC will play its first game on March 3 versus New England at American Legion Memorial Stadium. Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. EST.
