Corn Uí Mhuirí: Abbey CBS come alive late on to secure opening round victory

Abbey CBS rolled the dice with some subs and got their reward.

VICTORIOUS: Adam Ryan, Abbey CBS, under pressure from Shane Kelleher and Shane Gilroy, St Pat’s, Castleisland.

Abbey CBS 1-10 St. Patrick’s Castleisland 1-8 

Abbey CBS claimed an opening round victory of the 2023/24 Corn Uí Mhuirí after defeating St. Patrick’s, Castleisland at a soaked University of Limerick. The rain had barely relented on Shannonside for over 24 hours but thankfully the 4G artificial surface could host this novel pairing at the top tier of schools football.
