St Francis College Rochestown claimed the Dr O’Callaghan Cup (Cork PPS SAHC) at a wet 4G pitch in SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Monday night. They got the perfect start through Ronan Dooley’s brace of goals within the opening three minutes, and after an impressive display during which they were never led, they finished strong to emerge with six points to spare.
