Lee proves a point to claim first senior title

ANDY LEE (St. Francis, Limerick) claimed his first National Senior Championship title by doing what had to be done at the National Stadium last night when he out-pointed Eamon O’Kane (St. Canices) 27-12 in the eagerly awaited Middleweight final.

The 18-year-old Limerick lad, a silver medallist at the World Junior Championships in Cuba last year, has been the centre of attention from the moment he stepped into the ring on his Senior Championship debut.

A stylish and accurate southpaw he did not disappoint his fans.
