Crescent off to storming start in Senior Cup

Munster Senior Cup: Crescent 10 CBC 0

Crescent Comprehensive, Munster Schools Senior Cup holders for the past two years, got their challenge for an unprecedented three in-a-row off to the best possible start when beating Christian Brothers College, Cork, by two unconverted tries to nil at Clifford Park yesterday.

Crescent dealt admirably with the atrocious conditions to build a 10-point interval lead and then coped in relative comfort with the best Christians could throw at them to emerge impressive winners and go through to a home quarter-final meeting with Glenstal.
