Cowhey treble for UCD

Rainey Old Boys 10 UCD 41

Neil Cowhey ended a good news week for UCD by scoring a hat-trick of tries as the students pressed their AIB Cup claims at Rainey today.

The appropriately named Hatrick Park bore witness to a lively start from UCD, as out-half Cowhey got over for two tries.

The 20-year-old out-half's effort helped the visitors to a 22-10 half-time lead. Experienced prop Peter Boyle grabbed Rainey's only try.

Further touchdowns from Matt Nagle, Robert Shanley and Cowhey saw the winning margin widen for a UCD side that will have the services of prop Ben Barclay for the forseeable future after he decided against declaring for the USA.

Scorers:

Rainey Old Boys: Try: Peter Boyle; Con: Michael Glancy; Pen: Michael Glancy

UCD: Tries: Neil Cowhey 3, David Gilchrist, Matt Nagle, Robert Shanley; Cons: Simon Gillespie 4; Pen: Simon Gillespie
