Orrin Bizer: A 2023 graduate with a B.S. degree in Exercise Science from Life U, Bizer has been a pivotal figure in the success of the Life U Men’s Rugby team. His contributions were instrumental in securing back-to-back 7s national championships, and he demonstrated exceptional leadership as the captain during the latter tournament. In recognition of his outstanding performance and skill, Bizer was awarded the prestigious Prusmack Award in 2023, which honors the best collegiate men’s 7s player in the country. In Paris, Bizer will be one of four forwards on the Team USA squad, bringing his expertise and determination to the international stage.
