Team honourable in victory and in defeat

Alas, St Kieran’s shattered our dream. We were all disappointed but, of course, the team and mentors felt it most of all.

I pay tribute to this St Colman’s team who have done the college proud in 2001, 2002 and 2003. We have been privileged to see brilliant hurling from a brilliant team, which has been honourable in victory and in defeat.
