UCC stunned by Galway conquerors
It was the spring of 2003 when the Galway university last held ownership of the Sigerson Cup. There was no 15-year gap bridged yesterday afternoon, although that was somewhat hard to tell such was their delight — justified, at that — at the final whistle.
On offer here was a semi-final berth. UCC were favourites for it. And rightly so. It’s very rare for a UCC team, under the watchful eye of Billy Morgan, to be turned over on their own patch when the Sigerson Cup rolls into the Mardyke every January and February.
