UCC has honoured its Fitzgibbon Cup-winning side with a Team of The Year recognition in its annual sports awards, announced Wednesday.

The college’s hurlers retained the third level blue riband earlier this year, winning it the hard way after conceding two early goals in the final against IT Carlow.
