Early career
editBorn in Germany, Iscaro grew up in Olney, Maryland, part of the Washington DC metro area.[2][3] He attended the University of California, Berkeley where he won two Championships in 2018 and 2019.[4]
Club career
editAfter leaving university, Iscaro signed for Glasgow Warriors on a training contract.[5] He signed for Old Glory DC ahead of the 2020 Major League Rugby season, although didn't debut until the 2021 season due to injury.[6] Iscaro was a stalwart for Old Glory DC since his MLR debut in 2021, starting 56 of his 76 appearances. As well as being a regular first-choice loosehead prop for the USA Eagles, the scrummager was a 4x All-MLR selection and was named in the All-MLR First XV twice, in 2023 and 2025.[7][8]
In October 2025, Iscaro signed a short-term contract for French team Stade Francais as a medical joker.[9] The team re-signed him later in December 2025 to a deal until 2027.[10] The extension for Iscaro marks a significant transition in his professional career. His performance during the initial months of the 2025-2026 campaign prompted the club to offer a permanent three-year agreement
Under the terms of the new deal, Iscaro is now under contract with Stade Français until June 2027. The move solidifies his position as a primary representative of United States rugby in the European top flight. Since debuting for the USA Eagles in 2022, Iscaro has earned 18 caps and has established himself as a cornerstone of the national team’s scrum. His retention ensures he will continue to compete at the sport’s highest club level in the lead-up to the 2027 Rugby World Cup.
International career
editIscaro represented the United States under-20 team in 2017.[11] He earned selection for the full United States side in 2022, making his debut against Kenya.[12]
