Dungannon 17 Blackrock College 10, Stevenson Park

Tries in either half from Ajay Subherwal and Paul Magee saw Dungannon claim the scalp of Blackrock, 17-10, for their fourth win of the AIB League Division One season at Stevenson Park.

'Rock are still without a win in Tyrone since 1993 after a painfully slow start saw them undone.

A 30-metre penalty from Conor Kilroy was all they had to show for a first half which ended 10-3 in Dungannon's favour.

Newly appointed Ireland Under 21 captain Gareth Steenson converted Subherwal's dart over on the half-hour, adding to his earlier penalty.

The former Queen's favourite added a second spot kick after the restart and while 'Rock centre Andy O'Neill got in for his fifth try of the season, Magee's effort already had Jeremy Davidson's men on the way to victory in the club's 170th AIL outing.

Scorers:

Dungannon: Tries: Ajay Subherwal, Paul Magee; Cons: Gareth Steenson 2; Pen: Steenson

Blackrock: Try: Andy O’Neill; Con: Conor Kilroy; Pen: Kilroy

HT: Dungannon 10 Blackrock 3
