Determined St Colman’s secure spot in decider

St Colman’s College, Fermoy 1-13 Gort Community School 0-12: After another huge battle, St Colman’s College advanced to the All-Ireland Post Primary Schools Junior A hurling (U16½) championship final. They will play St Kieran’s College, Kilkenny. 

Just like the Dean Ryan Cup final replay a week earlier, this was a performance full of extraordinary fight and determination. They beat Gort CS, in Kilmallock, on Saturday.

Winning coach, Garvan Queeney, is relishing the task. “We would have had huge battles in the past and it is nice to renew that rivalry again. Back 10 or 12 years, that is a fixture that would have occurred. It is nice to see it again. We are looking forward to it already.”
