SCHOOLS' GAMES VINNIE MURRAY CUP QUARTER-FINALS: St Andrew's College 33 Templeogue College 12:CENTRE GARY Foxton bagged a brace of tries as St Andrew's College easily eclipsed Templeogue College at the Iveagh Grounds yesterday.
It means St Andrew’s qualify for a Senior Cup proper first-round tussle with Kilkenny College next Tuesday.
They should be in good shape as Foxton twice added to the first-half tries from right-wing Michael Ruttle, centre Adam McDonagh and tighthead Jake Cawley in what was a free-flowing match.
Foxton’s speed was a feature of the game as his two five-pointers came from some distance out around the time Templeogue were striving to make a recovery.
The losers were rewarded with tries from loosehead Seán Carroll and lock Graham Bennett.
