Killarney and Charleville lift silverware

ST SENAN’S caused the biggest shock in the opening round of games in the Munster Junior League as Killarney and Charleville lifted silverware.

St Senan’s had a surprising 17-11 home win over Crosshaven. Kieran Doran kicked a penalty to give Crosshaven a 3-0 interval read. A Darren Keane try and a second Doran penalty had the Seasiders ahead 11-10 when Daragh McCoy intercepted an almost certain try for Crosshaven and raced to the other end to score and Declan Collins converted to give the Clare side the points. Fernando Gallant also scored a try for Senan’s and Collins converted and also added a penalty.

Old Christians snatched a dramatic win with a last minute try from Darragh Daly which Conor Quaid converted to give the Rathcooney side a 22-20 away victory over Kilfeacle. The Tipperary side led 10-6 at half time with a try from Pierce Breen and a conversion and penalty by Mark Burke. Jack O’Sullivan and Charlie Walsh scored further tries for the home side but indiscipline cost them dearly as Conor Mangan kicked five penalties for the visitors.
