Dolphin deliver at the death

DIVISION TWO champions Dolphin had an uncomfortable afternoon before pipping local rivals University College Cork 20-18 at Musgrave Park on Saturday.

Indeed the students can feel slightly aggrieved, with only an upright denying them a sensational victory.

Six minutes from the end, with UCC 18-13 up, Conor Quaid struck what appeared to be a perfectly aimed drop goal. At the last second the ball drifted away, struck an upright and bounced harmlessly over the Dolphin line.
