In the end, this proved the difference in a keenly contested battle between the two sides. 

We would once again like to thank our Second Year Team who were incredible supporters on the day and who created an electric atmosphere that encouraged and inspired the First-Year team at every opportunity. 

We would also like to sincerely thank Herterich Butchers Longford for their generous sponsorship of our new team kit, which the team wore for the first time on the day. The team now awaits details of the upcoming Regional Final fixture. Thank you to their coaches and all involved in the team! Go n-éiri libh!
