Tullamore's Ailsa Hughes scored two tries as Railway Union defeated Blackrock College in a thrilling Energia Women's All-Ireland League Final on Saturday evening.
The scrum-half scored a try in each half to help her side to a 24 -18 win in Energia Park.
Her first try was a brilliant opportunist effort from the base of a ruck and she ran an excellent support line to take the pass to score her second.
