Críost Rí battle hard to secure place

REIGNING Corn Ui Mhiurí (Munster Colleges SFC) champions Coláiste Chríost Rí had to battle hard before securing their place in the quarter-finals with a 2-11 to 2-10 victory over Dingle CBS at Fossa yesterday.

Críost Rí needed just a point to reach the last eight. But two missed penalties from Cork minor Roy Leahy, and a general complacency in the first half almost cost them dearly.

Scorers Choláiste Chríost Rí: P Kerrigan (0-4, 1f), G Cummins (0-3), E Hegarty (1-0), B Newman (1-0), F Lynch (0-2), R Leahy (0-2, 1f, 1 pen).
