Br. Damien praying for a Cats minor hat-trick

WITH the All-Ireland colleges title safely tucked away in St Kieran’s, Brother Damien is hoping he can steer Kilkenny to victory in tomorrow’s MHC final against Galway.

Like the seniors, the Cats are also chasing a hat-trick of titles at minor level, but the Callan CBS teacher is concerned that the pressure to complete the treble is beginning to weigh heavily on his charges.

“Expectations are high in Kilkenny and followers always want the teams to win, no matter what has gone on before,” said Br Damien.
