The School, College & University Competitions Thread (another thread gone west)

IT Carlow continue to make ā€˜Collegeā€™ their bitches

Is DJ still in charge?

He mentioned he was in an interview over the weekend.

Had they ever won it before that?

I cant be sure, but very much doubt it.

Read a report on that the other day. Seems like a very very dubious bit of research

i see mt Sion CBS won the Munster senior ā€œEā€ hurling competition yesterday beating Tralee - are things that bad in the school? @Fagan_ODowd

Well they may not have won it. So that would be worse

In reality Mt Sion havenā€™t been a force at Schools Hurling since they won the Harty Cup in 1953.

In my day Iā€™m pretty sure we were well down the ranks, possibly C or D.

And itā€™s a small school. There are only 280 boys.

Jesus that was some fall . Harty Cup winners to Roinn C/D in a decade .

It was less than that. We won the C which was then the lowest grade in 1959.

My Sion hurlers used always go to MS CBS and the CBS were always competitive with that alone. But E hurlingā€¦itā€™s a pity to see.

Youā€™d expect a school in a hurling area with less than 100 boys to compete at a higher grade than that

As many of them go to St Paulā€™s and DLS now.

Yeah thatā€™s true
