Cadette Girls Basketball: All-Ireland Qualifiers

On the 7th of January, the cadette girls travelled to far flung Carrick, Co. Donegal to take part in the All-Ireland qualifiers. They first took on St. Joseph’s Mercy of Navan, Co. Meath. The girls started off well with a couple of good baskets. We had a competitive lead but with the opposing team fighting back they managed to pull ahead. This didn’t cause the girls to drop their heads and they kept going until the end, just missing the victory . Next up St. Paul’s took on the home team, Colaiste na Carraige. Our girls started off with some great defensive play, but this just wasn’t enough on the day with Colaiste na Carraige pulling away with the win. Well done to the team and Miss Mahony for getting this far.
