Fr Godfrey Cup semi-final/CUS 20 Cistercian Roscrea 0: CUS overwhelmed Cistercian Roscrea to claim a place in the final at Beechpark yesterday.

Enda Hession was first on the scoreboard with a first-half penalty and hooker Conor Lehane added a try to give the Dublin school an 8-0 interval lead.

Eoin Murray got the first of his two tries midway through the second half and while battling Roscrea spent much of the time camped inside the opposition's half their hard work was not rewarded thanks to some good CUS defending.

CUS: M McGrath; P Fitzpatrick, I Harrington, E Hession, D Shanahan; N Kelly, K Rowan; S McKnight, C Lehane, K Donoghue; J Redmond-O'Leary, D Treacy; W Gilson, C Gavin, E Murray. Replacement: M Darby for Treacy.
