Well done Billy and Eamonn!

Congrats and well done to Billy Ryan and Eamonn Egan, who carried on a proud parish tradition by winning the Croke Cup with St. Kieran’s College today in the All Ireland Senior Colleges Final. St. Kieran’s defeated Thurles CBS on a scoreline of 1-15 to 1-12 at Semple Stadium. It was St. Kieran’s 20th All Ireland Colleges triumph which made it that little bit more special. Billy’s first half display was straight out of the top drawer as he scored 3 excellent points and provided a magnificent pass for Kieran’s only goal. Eamonn came off the bench in the 46th minute at a time when Kieran’s backs were under severe pressure and he helped to repel a Thurles CBS onslaught from then right up to the final whistle.

Graigue-Ballycallan had their first championship football tie this year against Inistioge in the Rower on Sunday 29th March. Sixteen players were available and took to the field on an extremely stormy day. Inistioge won the toss and played downhill and with the wind in the first half. Against the run of play  Ballycallan scored a goal after twenty minutes and this was the only score of the first half. Read more
