Alex Sheehan try helps Clonmel go clear at the summit

Rain disrupted the Munster Junior League program yesterday with eight of the scheduled games being postponed.

In Division 1, Clonmel have gone clear at the top after their 13-6 away win at Newcastle West.

Conor Cooney opened the scoring for Clonmel with a penalty, but Sean Herlihy levelled before a try by Alex Sheehan, converted by Cooney, had Clonmel 10-3 ahead at half-time. Ten minutes into the second half, Cooney extended his side’s advantage with a penalty and Newcastle West’s only reply was a penalty by Alan Roche.
