St Michael’s set up clash with Newbridge College

St Michael’s College and Newbridge College will contest to the quarter-finals of the Leinster Schools’ Junior Cup, following respective victories over St Gerard’s, Bray and Gorey Community School, yesterday afternoon.

Michael’s were firm favourites to prevail from their clash with Gerard’s at Donnybrook, and broke the deadlock on 11 minutes with a seven-point salvo by outside-centre Christopher Cosgrave.

His midfield partner, Cian McGettigan also secured a converted score for the Ailesbury Road outfit, and with Mark O’Brien and winger Zach Harrison also touching down before the end of the half, they brought a commanding 24-0 cushion into the interval.
