A phenomenal run by our under 15 girls saw us lose out to Na Pearsaigh in the semi-finals 34-18. Numerous absences due to injuries before and during the game was instrumental in an unfortunate conclusion to what had been a brilliant season. Coach O'Callaghan could not have been prouder of his team and the girls were magnificent. We will go one further next year ...
The under 15 boys in true style with Adam and Shea along with point guard Finn saw off a determined Harold's Cross team to reach another boys final and fittingly give us a chance to achieve a double.
The attitude and never-give-up attitude is a brilliant attribute that encompasses every member of both teams. Our girls whilst well down in the 3rd quarter rallied back and won the 4th quarter, emphasising the spirit and commitment to success from everyone in our school. Well done to both teams!
