LAST year’s winner Craig Murphy did not compete but Douglas CS kept the senior boys’ individual title thanks to an impressive performance from Richard Quirke at the South Munster Schools cross-country championships hosted by Midleton CBS yesterday.

CRAIG MURPHY might have followed in the footsteps of his grandfather, legendary Kerry All-Ireland football star Jas Murphy, were it not for the fact that one day he went for a training run with a group of athletes from Douglas Community School.
