St Declan's College 4-13 Col Padraig Lucan 2-10
Congratulations to the U18 hurling team who were crowned Dublin Senior Colleges Champions this afternoon in Abbotstown. The team produced a magnificent display for the entire sixty minutes. The time and effort invested into training over the winter months proved to be the vital difference as St Declan's sprang into action from the throw-in. Playing with a strong breeze in the 1st half we dominated most of the play. However scores were hard to come by as Lucan CBS crowded their defence. Half-time score 2-06 to 0-04.
We knew a big second half would be needed to hold off a strong Lucan attack and so it was. All over the pitch each player gave everything for the chance to bring the cup home to Declan's. Eventually we ran out winners on a scoreline of 4-13 to 2-10. This is the first time the school has won the B title and the honour fell to Humphrey Kelleher, former Dublin manager, to present the cup to a very worthy and understandably proud captain David Phelan.
Our thanks to Ray O'Connor for all the training he has done with the team and to all who came out to support the lads on the day. The next hurdle is a Leinster Colleges Final against St Fergal's Rathdowny.

Well done to Joe Fogarty (1 Carolan), Daniel Khijinski (5 Éanna) and Seán Donoghue (3 Carolan) who competed in the Leinster schools Cross Country competition on Wednesday 21 February 2018.
