Danske Bank Ward Cup quarter-finals
Coláiste Oiriall Monaghan 9-11 Finn Valley Stranorlar 2-8
Gairmscoil Chú Uladh Glenfin 5-10 St Kevin’s Lisnaskea 1-8
St Mogue’s Bawnboy 7-16 St Louise’s Belfast 0-7
YESTERDAY was a good day for Gaelscoileanna in the Danske Bank Ward Cup quarter-finals with both Coláiste Oiriall from Monaghan and Gairmscoil Chú Uladh from Glenfin progressing to semi-final meeting at the end of the month.
Two first half goals from Daragh Ó hAmaill set Coláiste Oiriall up nicely for their victory over Finn Valley College from Stranorlar. Leon Ó Murchú and Seán Ó hAodha added further goals before the break as the Monaghan side led by 4-5 to 0-4 at the turnover.
Although Finn Valley hit back with goals from Patrick McColgan and Joel Bradley-Walsh, they were never close enough to get back in contention and two goals each from Anann Ó Conchúr and Ógie Ó Dufaigh sealed the win for Coláiste Oiriall.
Meanwhile in Bawnacre, Gairmscoil Chú Uladh took control early in their game against St Kevin’s Lisnaskea with scores from the Mac Gloinn clan – Odhrán, Luke and Kaine.
Indeed the Glenfin outfit led by 2-6 to 1-3 at the break and powered on with second half goals from Odhrán Mac Gloinn, Dara McClafftery and Seosamh Shank-Smith, while, despite a brave effort from Aodhan Durnian and Thomas McGrory, St Kevin’s could only add a further five points.
In the third quarter-final played yesterday in Keady, St Mogue’s Bawnboy were comfortable winners over St Louise’s Belfast who had entered a boys’ football team for the first time.
However Bawnboy simply had too much experience for the west Belfast school and the Cavan side now await a winner from next Thursday’s game in MUSA between De La Salle Downpatrick and Errigal College Letterkenny
