KERRY COLLEGES DUNLOE CUP FINAL
Pobalscol Chorca Dhuibhne 0-15 Colaiste Na Sceilge 2-6
Boasting six of their Corn Ui Mhuiri starting fifteen, PS Chorca Dhuibhne were tested in the opening half as the sides traded points and Na Sceilge were boosted by a Darragh O'sullivan goal in the 22nd minute as they fought back to level at the interval, 1-4 to 0-7, with Tom O'sullivan who plays corner back with the senior side kicking some fine points for Dingle.
However Pobalscoil Chorca Dhuibhne took over in the second half, thanks to some excellent football from the likes of Marc Ó Conchuir, Conor Ó Súilleabháin, and Briain Ó Beaglaoi at the back, midfielder Colm Ó Beaglaoi and forwards Tom Ó Súilleabháin, and Cathal Ó Bambaire and kicked some fine scores.
However Colaiste Na Sceilge never gave up a late Conor O'leary goal, made for a nervous finish but Pobalscoil Chorca Dhuibhne, well coached by Kerry U-21 boss Eamon Fitzmaurice, held on for a deserved victory.
