Rampant Shannon outclass students

SHANNON took full advantage of the quiet weekend in the AIB League when they trounced UCD at Thomond Park and moved into third place in the first division.

Rampant Shannon ran in for eight tries while Andrew Thompson added to the total with a penalty and six conversions.

Thompson also contributed two tries on a day when Shannon could do no wrong and, despite the concession of three tries, this was no more than a stroll in the park.
