St Josephs College First Years Win Shield

 

The first year boys from St Josephs College Borrisoleigh re-wrote their proud sporting history recently by ending a thirteen year wait for silverware at under 13 level, in claiming the ‘Plata Ui Cathain for the ‘A’ section of the County first year hurling blitz. They beat a spirited Colaiste Mhuire, Johnstown in a thrilling final on a Templetuohy pitch that was in excellent condition to hold such a game of such quality. Following early victories over Thurles CBS ‘B’ and Colaiste Phobal Roscrea, in their opening two matches, St Josephs College faced Johnstown in their third match of the round robin series and following a good first half showing they were unable to deal with the physicality of the Johnstown half forward line and eventually lost out on a scoreline of five points to three. This result saw the entire group open up with three teams out of four that were left in the tournament still having the possibility of qualifying for the final. It set up a ‘winner takes all’ encounter between St Josephs College and Cashel Community School, following a whirlwind start and a powerful first half display by the boys from Borris they eventually eased to victory and in turn set up a final berth with Johnstown. Having previously lost to Coláiste Mhuire earlier in the day, St Josephs College management team seemed to make some astute tactical decisions prior to the final, which paid strong dividend in their eventual success. It was Johnstown who started much the stronger and got off to the perfect start with a goal inside the opening thirty seconds of the game. This however, seemed to really ignite the St.Joseph’s challenge and within minutes they soon found themselves in a commanding position from which they never relented. They pushed on up through the gears and when push came to shove the Borris boys were well able to meet the challenge. The game finished on a score lone of St. Joseph’s Borrisoleigh 5-04 to Coláiste Mhuire Johnstown 2-01.
The shield was presented by the County Board Secretary Tim Floyd to a delighted St Joseph’s Captain Jerry Kelly. On a day of a very fine team performances, those who were to the fore were Aaron Reid, Daniel Meehan and centre back Richard O’Donoghue in defence. With the stylish Alan Ryan, industrious Eoin Grace and Jerry Kelly and the classy Adam Hogan were a continuous handful for any defence throughout the tournament.
