St Joseph’s College, Borrisoleigh Camogie
The senior camogie team played St Anne’s Killaloe in the Munster senior championship on Monday October 17th in what turned out to be a replay of last years Munster final, both with location and final score. The game was always going to be a big ask of the girls especially Aedin Hogan and Tara Mockler who had less than twenty four hours earlier played a huge role with Borrisoleigh in the replay of the county senior camogie club final. Gemma McCarthy, Laoise Mcgrath,Aisling Carey and Eimear Murphy also had busy weekends with their club but soldiered on and fought gallantly.
Killaloe were the better team and scored effortlessly, leaving the Borrisoleigh girls struggling to gain possession. Team: Sarah Dunne, Hazel Reynolds, Kristin Danko, Amy O Brien, Megan Dunne, Tara Mockler,Aisling Dwyer, Gemma McCarthy, Eimear Murphy, Aedin Hogan, Aoife Ryan, Norma Lavery, Ciara Maher, Laoise Mcgrath Elaine Gleeson, Aisling Carey, Maeve Stapleton, Shaneen Stapleton,
The first and second years had a great day in sunny Templetuohy where they competed in the Tipperary schools blitz day. They were beaten by Borrisokane and Roscrea and beat Nenagh College. The future looks bright with so many first years improving so much as they gain experience.
Well done to all involved with Borrisoleigh senior camogie team on reaching the county final and taking it to a replay. It was great to see so many present and past pupils playing the game at the highest level for their club. Well done also to the Silvermines U/18 team on winning the county final.
