It is halfway up the stairwell at Musgrave Park and a few paces away from the spot his captain Rory O’Shaughnessy lifted the Munster Schools Senior Cup aloft where Presentation Brothers College manager Ger Burke reflects on his side’s achievement.

They secured the local bragging rights in Cork by defeating their arch-rivals Christian Brothers College but perhaps more importantly for Burke and his players, their victory in Tuesday’s showpiece occasion secured the silverware for the 31st time in their history which sees them join CBC at the top of the competition’s roll of honour.
