Crowning glory for UCC
A Sigerson Cup triumph in the competition’s centenary year was a notable feat but they ensured the good times kept rolling at Páirc Uí Chaoimh yesterday when they capped an outstanding season. Daithí Casey’s calmly-taken penalty in the 57th minute ensured the students would lift the Andy Scannell Cup for the first time since 1999.
Their slick interplay carved open Castlehaven in the first half of yesterday’s decider that was attended by 7,027 patrons and the control they exerted in the opening period proved pivotal to their success as they enjoyed a 0-8 to 0-4 lead at the break.
