CBC Monkstown Takes Win with Traynor-Russell’s Remarkable Leap

A remarkable leap from Cal Traynor-Russell puts CBC Monkstown in front, securing a spot in the Bank of Ireland Leinster Schools Senior Cup quarter-final at Energia Park.

Early Struggles and Momentum Shifts

St. Gerard’s initially held the lead, but CBC struggled with discipline. Conor Broderick’s angled ball put CBC in a menacing position, but successive penalties relieved pressure on St. Gerard’s.

Momentum Swings: Buckley’s Chance and St. Gerard’s Response

Scrappy play saw Joshua Buckley capitalize on a penalty advantage, setting up Zenon Chambers for a try. St. Gerard’s responded with Turlough McCracken-Brown’s penalty scavenging and a driving maul led by Eoghan O’Hanlon.

Tension Builds: Disallowed Tries and Penalties

Tom Reynolds’s disallowed try left CBC trailing 12-3 at halftime. St. Gerard’s conceded ground due to backchat, but CBC struggled to capitalize until O’Hanlon’s determined effort.

CBC Seizes Control: Tries and a Man Advantage

Despite St. Gerard’s threatening with a maul, CBC’s Harry Balfe capitalized on patience for a try. St. Gerard’s Nathan Harte’s sin-binning allowed CBC to exploit the maul, leading to tries by Luan Moloney and Traynor-Russell.

Final Surge and Decisive Moments

CBC’s Ross McCrea and Milo Quinn were thwarted, but a decisive incision from full-back Mahon set up Traynor-Russell’s flying finish. St. Gerard’s last-minute efforts were nullified, securing victory for CBC.
