Thurles CBS create history with win over Clonmel
Thurles CBS made history last Monday as they completed the clean sweep of every A hurling and football competition in Tipperary, with their U15 footballers having a comprehensive win over Highschool Clonmel 6-16 to 0-8 in Cashel.
They had already won the Croke Cup U15 A hurling, as the 1st years won the Corn Uí Chatháin A hurling, & the B Pláta Uí Chatháin.
The Thurles school also won the Rockwell Blitz U14 A football, the U17 A & B hurling competitions, along with the U19 county A football competition.
This marks the end of an incredible year winning two Munster A hurling titles also, the Rice Cup U14 hurling and the Corn Uí Dhuda (White Cup) U15.
The CBS boys recovered from an early surge from Clonmel to totally take over the game. Cillian Minogue top scored with 3-4, Leelan Donoghue 1-1, Alex Coppinger & Killian Cantwell 0-3 each, Rian Treacy & James Butler 1-0 each, Toby Corbett & Euan Murray 0-2 each, Ryne Bargary 0-1.
