Boys in Basketball final!


Today the Tiermohan boys reached the final in the basketball blitz which was held in Kilcullen.
They beat Allen 14-4 and took two points from their next game against Newbridge Educate Together. Unfortunately they were beaten 11-8 by St Patrick's. Tiermohan boys continued by beating Kilberry 12-8 which brought them to the semi-finals.
They were comfortable winners over Kilashee, beating them by 12-2.
The final was a different affair however, with Tiermohan and St Patrick's matching each other basket for basket during the first half. The second half saw St Patrick's pulling ahead and finishing up at 18-7. Our boys were happy coming home with silver medals, aware they had all played their best for their school. Once again, many thanks to our drivers and supporters and to Joe O' Connor who organised the blitz.
