Description
Hosts Dallen Stanford & Robin MacDowell are joined by legend Alev Kelter for #RugbyHive Episode 15. Kelter is the 4th highest point scorer in history on the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series, behind Canada’s Ghislaine Landry and Kiwi’s Tyla Nathan-Wong and Portia Woodman. This past season, however, Kelter was the leading point scorer in the world.  She is the most capped USA Eagle ever to play on the Series - and will be heading to her second Olympic Games in Tokyo, 2021.   In today’s episode we reveal more about her amazing family, what her name means, her versatile background in sports and attending the University of Wisconsin with her twin sister.  We chat about her remarkable entry into rugby from having never touched a rugby ball to representing her country. After 6 years on the Series, and several different USA coaches, Kelter is perfectly positioned to provide insight into the Women’s game.   She has advice for younger players, and reveals why rugby’s ethos and values are unmatched by any other sport. We hope you enjoy and follow us on these platforms! Podcast 🎧 anchor.fm/rugbyhive Instagram | @MyRugbyHive Facebook | RugbyHive Twitter | @RugbyHive #RugbyPodcast #RugbyLegends
