All-Ireland Colleges 'A' & 'B' Finals
Congratulations to St Kieran's College who claimed their 23rd All-Ireland 'A' title on Saturday in Tullamore. This is the College's sixth win in seven years, a remarkable achievement in modern day hurling.
Hard luck to Castlecomer Community School who came up just short in their All-Ireland 'B' final on Saturday also in Tullamore. Having started the stronger Comer's lead was hauled back by St Raphael's and that gap widened to eight points at one stage but a late rally in the closing stages was not enough for Castlecomer to claim the title on this occasion.
Well done to both panels and both sets of mentors on their achievements over the year. There is valuable work being done by our teachers both primary and secondary, byour GDA's, by our squad coaches and club coaches the length and breath of the county and without it our supply lines would not be operating.
