Kayla Moleschi and her Team Canada women’s sevens teammates will have to figure out a way to beat New Zealand if they ever hope to win a Women’s Sevens World Series Cup Final.

For the third straight international tournament, New Zealand defeated Canada in a Cup Final, this time taking the Atlanta Sevens with a 36-0 victory Sunday.

It was a disappointing end to an otherwise successful tournament for the Canadians — a tournament that saw Moleschi crack the starting lineup throughout — as Canada has now advanced to four straight Women’s Sevens World Series Cup Semifinals and sits third in the current series standings with 32 points.

Through two events last season they only had 18.

The team will now turn their attention to Brazil, as the Sao Paulo Sevens kickoff today.
