Oklahoma native Asa Carter played in Major League Rugby between 2022-2024. He represented the Austin Gilgronis (2022), the Dallas Jackals (2022), and the Houston SaberCats (2023-2024).

The Arkansas State University alum played with the Austin Gilgronis‘ academy side, the Austin Outlaws, during 2021 and earned a full MLR contract for the 2022 season. He earned 2 caps for the AGs before being traded to the Dallas Jackals along with Campbell Robinson, 2022 Cap Considerations (unknown) and Austin’s 2nd Rd pick in 2022 (20th overall, used to select Matias Caramuti). The Jackals had experienced an off-the-field incident and had suddenly found themselves with a large number of injuries, so needed to bring in replacements. Carter earned a further 6 caps for the Jackals, 5 of which were starts.

In late March 2023, a few weeks into that year’s MLR season, the Houston SaberCats announce the signing of Carter for the remainder of the 2023 season. He earned 5 caps for the ‘Cats, joining an elite club of MLR players who have represented all 3 Texas teams in MLR. On 21st December 2023, the Houston SaberCats announced the return of Asa Carter for the 2024 MLR season.
