Valiant display by St Pius girls - All-Ireland Junior B Colleges Semi-final
St Mary’s Nenagh 6-9 St Pius Magherafelt 0-2
Despite their valiant display, Ulster Champions, St Pius Magherafelt
lost out to a superb Tipperary
side in Saturday’s All-Ireland semi-final.
St Mary’s Nenagh have a strong camogie tradition and their experience
showed throughout. St Pius’ held them
well though in the first half and lloked to be growing in confidence. However, the pace and strength of the Tipperary players was
evident in the later stages of the game and they ran out convincing winners.
The Ulster
champions will be disappointed not to have reached the final but the players
and the management team of Therese McCann and Patrice Brolly can be extremely
proud of their achievements this year and, with most players still eligible
next season, they will be a force to be reckoned with.
