Rockwell power past Castletroy

Holders Rockwell dealt admirably with the awful weather conditionsprevailing at Clanwilliam Park, Tipperary, yesterday to emerge decisive victors over Castletroy in the quarter-final of the Avonmore Milk Munster Schools Senior Cup.

They now meet CBC in the semi-final, encouraged by an impressiveperformance, especially in the first half after which they led 12-3 in spite of playing against the strong wind.

Castletroy, well led by captain Conor Bonfil and with half-backs Jonathan McDonnell and Luke Clohessy also doing well at half-back, proved gritty opposition but lacked the physical strength to cope with the powerful Rockwell forward pack.
