Third place winner in 2017, Saint Joseph's returns for their third year in a row. Colgate and Ithaca travel to Bermuda this week for the first time to compete. Big Ten's Ohio State travels to Bermuda for their first try at the coveted Ariel Re Bermuda Intl 7s Cup.2018 Bermuda Intl 7s Men B Pool

The Bermuda All-stars are the top seed in Men's Pool B based on the merits of their 3rd Place finish in 2016 and runner-up last year. Bermuda has earned the reputation by their consistent top play against some of the most talented teams in the USA. Rowan and Albany, who have played in the Bermuda 7s in past years, have shown signs of top form. Stony Brook, returning to Bermuda for their third straight year, is rumored to be as strong as ever in 2018. Notre Dame University is taking no chances as they arrived on the island early for a full week of training.
