U14 HURLING
We visited De La Salle last Tuesday in the latest round of the u14 hurling championship . When we left the Brothers we only had 15 players so we were really up against it as De La Salle have a real good panel of players . This did not however seem to daunt our players and it does show that a good panel of players is more important than just a good 15. A feature of this game was the courage shown by our 15 players and also for our goalie to take to the field even though he was feeling unwell.PANEL.D Kiely, D Keoghan,G Donnelly, TJ Kiely, J Power, B Cullinan, L O Callaghan, C Duggan, D Murphy, K Daly, C O Shea, R Geoghegan, C Sheehan, J Devine S McGrath.
