Form I Boys Win Rugby League Final

Congratulations to the Form I boys Rugby Team who won a thrilling league final last week against a physically strong Templeogue team. The game ended 45-34 after a phenomenal team effort. Templeogue started strong, going into a 0-10 lead early on but Columba’s foght back, with a penalty and a converted try courtesy of the excellent Joshua Cron. Templeogue got on back and it was 14-17 at half time. Joshua was on the scoresheet early in the second half, dotting down for two more tries (converting both) and “The Ducks” now had a 31-17 lead. Joshua was almost unplayable and two more tries, started inside his own 22, saw their lead extend to 45-27 with just a few minutes left. Templeogue got one more consolation try, showing their determination extended to the final minute, but St. Columba’s were crowned the champions and celebrated in style.

Congratulations to the entire team for their amazing performance and to Mr Paul Cron and his coaching team for their hard work and dedication throughout the term.
