Battling Scoil Eoin retain title in fine style

GOOD hurling town Youghal, and their representative from Scoil Eoin did them proud at Mitchelstown yesterday by retaining their Munster Vocational Schools Senior B championship title in fine style, beating a Nenagh Vocational Schools side that just did not have enough firepower.

And it was a title to savour for Scoil Eoin coach Liam Ó Laochdha. Having seen his son, centre-back Cathal sent off after just 13 minutes, he must have feared the worst, especially with Tipp minor Joe McLoughney, who scored all his side’s total, and Kevin Quinlan buzzing.
