Dundalk Grammar School couldn't contain a much stronger and better-organised Presentation Glasthule team, hard though they tried to get back into the match at Skerries yesterday.
They scored two penalties, one on each side of half-time, but outstanding for Glasthule was their captain Brian Keegan who showed all his skills at out-half and distributed the ball well to his three quarters, all of whom scored tries. Also impressive was Glasthule's number eight Karl Lawlor.
Pres Glasthule: I Doyle; P James, M Bergin, B Plunkett, R Crowe; B Keegan, N Devine; E Quaid, R Murphy, D Fitzgerald, P Rush, G Clarke, G Doyle, P O'Brien, K Lawlor.
Dundalk Grammar: I Hearty; G Strong, W Douglas, M Kyck, J McClenehan; D Spearman, S Malone; P Meegan, J Corry, H Curtis, C Roe, T O Dalaigh, M Workman, P Farrell, C Williamson.
The match scheduled for Stradbrook yesterday between St Mary's, Drogheda and New Ross was called off with St Mary's being awarded a walkover.
