Balanced Christians in control against Ardscoil

CBC Cork 30 Ardscoil Rís 8: Beaten at the death by Ardscoil Rís at senior level, Christians were never going to allow a similar shock in yesterday’s Clayton Hotels Munster Schools Junior Cup quarter-final at Musgrave Park.
Balanced Christians in control against Ardscoil

The better balanced CBC outfit had too much in reserve for the Limerick outfit. They struck first with a penalty from out-half Cian Whooley but were pegged back quickly when Ardscoil flanker James Hourigan equalised, both in the opening six minutes.

It took a further 18 minutes to yield the second score of the game and again it went to Christians, speedy left winger Aaron Leahy breaking through the final tackle after being sent clear by prop Alex O’Regan on the narrow side for an unconverted try. Wholley missed the difficult conversion but stretched the half-time advantage to 11-3 with an injury-time penalty.
