PRESENTATION BROTHERS COLLEGE Cork are into the semi finals of the Munster Schools Senior Cup, following this victory over Limerick’s Ard Scoil Ris at Musgrave Park on Wednesday afternoon.
PBC are the current holders of this trophy and will be seeking to win this for a record 30th time.
The opening quarter of an hour was absolutely relentless stuff from PBC and set the tone for what was to come. They began this game at a very impressive pace and Ard Scoil could not handle what was being thrown at them.
Mark McCarthy got the holders’ opening try after some great individual work from Sean French in the build up.
Pres got their second try less than 90 seconds later as Sam O’Donovan got on the end of a great crossfield kick.

The Cork side were 19-0 up after just 11 minutes when Mark McLoughlin went over. Then just a minute later, Darragh O’Callaghan scored yet another try for PBC
Just past the half-hour mark, O’Donovan got his second try of the afternoon after powering his way past the Ard Scoil defence to put PBC 33-0 ahead at the half-time break.
Sean French went over shortly after the restart for a try of his own, before O’Donovan claimed his third try shortly thereafter.
Louis Bruce charged his way past a tired Ard Scoil defence for a try, before Eoin Burns and David Hyland also went over.
This was an emphatic display and a massive statement of intent from PBC.
