Fiji 7s playmaker Iowane Teba scooped the Player of the Tournament award after guiding Waisale Serevi’s Rhinos Loggerheads to win the second leg of the Premier Rugby Sevens in San Jose, California on Sunday.
The Loggerheads defeated Experts 15-12 in a tough final after overcoming the Retrievers 17-12 in the semifinals.

Meanwhile the Rhinos Women’s side with Fijiana 7s stars Reapi Uluinasau, Ana Naimasi and Younis Bese finished fourth after losing 17-7 to the Retrievers in the bronze medal playoff.
