Thriller in store as Rockwell bid to lay siege to Castletroy

ROCKWELL COLLEGE, one of the traditional powerhouses in the game for more than a century, and Castletroy College, who have burst on to the scene in sensational fashion over the past few years, clash in an intriguing Avonmore Milk Munster Schools Senior Cup semi-final at Clanwilliam Park, Tipperary this afternoon (3pm).

Thriller in store as Rockwell bid to lay siege to Castletroy

Rockwell last captured the trophy in 2001 – their 23rd title – whereas Castletroy struck first in 2008 when they completed the senior and junior double to prove they have arrived as serious challengers to the small and elite number of schools who have largely dominated for decades.

Rockwell play their third successive match at Clanwilliam, having beaten St Munchin’s convincingly and Ard Scoil Rís with a less-than-impressive performance.
