Silverware success at Munsters
Last Sunday the club traveled to WIT to participate in the Munster Even age Cross Country. Conor Hayes and Charlie Nicholson ran in a large U-10 Field followed by Leila O’Reilly and Lucy Barry in the Girls U-12. Kevin Barry was our sole representative in the boys U-14 on this hilly course. The first of our silverware winners was Meghan Carr in the U-14 girls race who ran superbly to come home in second position and also the first Cork girl home. Our Girls U-16 team made up of Sara Barry, Laura Hayes, Caoimhe Hayes, Sarah Mulcahy and Natalie Nicholson retained their winning form by winning a team silver and following yet another determined second place finish for Laura Hayes.
