St Munchin’s dominated territorially and were by far the greater physical force, yet they were fully extended to overcome Limerick city rivals Ardscoil Rís in the quarter-final of the Avonmore Milk Munster Senior Schools Cup at Clifford Park yesterday.

CBC Cork’s Adam Finn touched down for two tries as his side cruised to victory in their opening Avonmore Milk Munster Senior Schools Cup clash yesterday.

Crescent College Comprehensive hope their recent junior success can translate into rewards at senior level when they face PBC Cork in today’s Avonmore Milk Munster Senior Schools Cup quarter-final at Musgrave Park (3pm).

Ardscoil Rís’ Conor Glynn is tackled by Midleton College’s Andrew Colton.
