Morris Rugby’s own Tess Feury was recently featured in ESPN’s Resilient Athletes photo series.

As a pediatric intensive care nurse at Morristown Medical Center, Tess is balancing being on the front lines of the COVID-19 global pandemic with her at-home training for the USA Rugby Women’s XVs national team.

Tess got her start in rugby as a Denville Dawg in our Youth Flag program and became a High School Girls standout player.

After graduating from Penn State University with her nursing degree and several D1 Elite 15s National Championships under her belt, Tess started at outside center for the Morris Women’s Rugby team from 2018-2019.

In addition to the national team, Tess currently plays for NYRC in the Women’s Premier League.
