Scotland 7s Stars Re-Sign With Warriors
16 May 2007
Scottish Rugby announced today that Scotland 7s stars Mike Adamson and Max Evans have re-signed with the Glasgow Warriors pro-team. Man of the Match in Glasgow Hawks’ National Cup final victory at Murrayfield earlier this month, stand-off Mike Adamson is currently sitting seventh in the top points scorers table on the IRB Sevens World Series with 142, having played in all six tournaments on the series this season. Max Evans, elder brother of the Warriors’ flying winger Thom, joined Glasgow for a year and is now extending his stay with Scotland’s top pro-team. He has played in two IRB Sevens tournaments this season, Hong Kong and Adelaide in April.On the pair, Glasgow Warriors Head Coach Sean Lineen said: “Mike is a skilful player, even though he’s not the biggest on the park. He’s got a huge heart and we’ll bulk him up over the summer and then unleash him. There will be great competition between him and Colin Gregor for stand-off, while Dan Parks is away at the World Cup. “Just like Sean and Rory Lamont, the Evans brothers have the potential to be a dynamic force for Glasgow. Max has a lot to offer, as he showed with Scotland 7s in Hong Kong last month, and I’m excited about what he’ll bring to this squad,” he added.
