Rampant Clongowes too good for gallant Roscrea
Cistercian College Roscrea were unwitting victims having come, arguably, through the easier side of the draw with victories over Castleknock, Terenure and St Gerard’s while Clongowes beat Presentation College Bray, competition specialists Blackrock and St Michael’s, the team they defeated in the final last season.
Despite the bravery shown by Roscrea throughout the second half when the game had long since been settled — with Clongowes leading 24-0 at the interval — there was never a doubt about the outcome.
