UCD storm to Colours victory!


For the second year running, UCD easily claimed the annual Colours title. They won by a comprehensive 6-2 margin - this year's title being settled with only eight ties counting toward the end tally.

At a snow-swept Belfield, the overall title was already decided after the second series of games with UCD 5-1 ahead in games won. The ladies' 1sts triumph over their Trinity counterparts pushed them over the winning post with a comfortable 2-0 victory.

Holly Jenkinson(pictured) and Orla O'Shea's first half goals put them in a comfortable position and, from there, Mary Logue's side battened down the hatches to deny Trinity any route back into the game, scarcely giving up a chance.

It meant the men's 1sts was a dead rubber. UCD won it, too, former Three Rock players Robbie McFarlane and Luke McSharry putting them 2-0 up before Andy Grey pulled one back in the second half for the greens.

Results:
Men's: 1sts: UCD 2 Trinity 1; 2nds: UCD 2 Trinity 0; 3rds: UCD 0 Trinity 3
Women's: 1sts: UCD 2 Trinity 0; 2nds: UCD 1 Trinity 3; 3rds: UCD 2 Trinity 1; 4ths: UCD 2 Trinity 1; 5ths: UCD 3 Trinity 0
