Sacred Heart focused on camogie final challenge

At the function to honour the February Rebel Óg monthly award winners, the senior camogie team from Sacred Heart Secondary School in Clonakilty, one of the judges, Miriam Murphy, told the members of the team present not to read this article today.

In her defence, she did tell them to buy plenty of copies but to wait until tomorrow evening to look at it. The reason? Clon play St Dominic’s of Cabra in the All-Ireland Senior C final in Nenagh today and as a former Cork player and selector, Murphy was advising against being drawn into any hype.

As manager Brian Daly relates, though, there certainly wasn’t any hype at the start of the successful Munster campaign.
